Frank Lloyd Wright houses for sale

August 21, 2016 · by Andrew Oliver · in Market Reports

Why is Frank Lloyd Wright so popular? Here is one analyst’s comment:

His works were unique in that he followed the rule “function over form”. His buildings didn’t look alike nor did they look out of place in their surroundings, because he built his buildings to blend in with their environment.

His buildings became part of the landscape instead of being a huge expensive monument styled after classical Greek architecture with their huge columns and colossal proportions(which was the rage at that time) and stood apart from its surroundings. His modern style was considered fresh and original.

He also utilized every space in his buildings and designed them with great minimalism and functionality in mind. The Japanese are some of his greatest fans since they find his style reminiscent of their Zen philosophy.
