....What a magnificent building and an equally magnificent architect.
The Monona Terrace, as built, altered by modern building codes, and redesigned to accommodate modern construction materials and products, bears almost no resemblance to what Wright designed.
a visual masterpiece. His last revision was implimented by one of his draftsman, in his own words..
The sound is so bad that I could not watch this. Thankfully, I know about FLW.
FLW, designed a church where the parishioners had to face each other so I am not sure how religious he was. What a concept! I wonder if it ever helped.
that theme music
💕💕💕💕💕👋👋👋👋👋
Interesting bio but the poor sound quality is distracting.
How is this Frank Lloyd Wrights dream building when it is clearly not his design anymore? Weird notion to be able to ‘Update’ - whatever that means- a design. Ignores Wrights whole concept of scale and space... Business jumping on Wrights popularity bandwagon is all I see
Wright did not supervise the building process of alot of his projects in his later years, he had his apprentices do that. They were trained in his philosophy. So when he past taliesin took over and finished projects and even went on to create others in the style and philosophy of mister Wright..
@@garymoore104, that is true, but very few of Wright’s disciples really have an understanding of his architecture … many simply copy without thinking their buildings through … The Master is dead, his influence is better felt not in buildings that were completed by his fellows, but by the architects that took the organic concepts he pioneered and expanded them into their own work … Schindler, Neutra, Lautner, Harris, Ain, all are benefactors of the FLLW magic
This a biography, not the story of Monona…
U
Bad sound quality augmented by unnecessary music .
Lmfao ok so what, he didn't graduate from school. But yet, you're still making a documentary about how awesome he, and his creativity was. Interesting
The monogam Terrasse Plan from franki in 1938 was Genius the Center Flow to the water serve the people
The real Building has changed the genius plan over 180 degree to an big fort on water against the city IN DIFFERENT STAGES big and unpersonel
THAT IS THE OPPOSITE OF FRANKIES IDEA
Shamefully architecture in the result
Horrible concrete atrocities. None have aged well
Me You are a donut, with shit for frosting. What have you produced, clue me in, so I can go on line and judge it.🍩
Corruption & Fraud 💯
Frank's first love wasn't architecture, it was fucking women... What a guy.
agreed lmao
No doubt Wright was a pretty rotten person.
he was a genius
