Arizona: Taliesin West

 

Taliesin West, located in Scottsdale, Arizona, served as architect Frank Lloyd Wright’s winter home from 1937 until his death in 1959. Wright wanted the home to have a connection to the desert and built it using local rocks and materials. He also employed natural light wherever he could, and the ceiling of his drafting room is covered by a translucent canvas.

 

At the end of the day, Wright saw this winter home as an inspiring escape. Now, it serves as the main campus of the School of Architecture at Taliesin and is home to the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation.
