Frank Lloyd Wright Work
Materials
he used mostly natural materials when possible
USP
possibly one of the reasons that he was so succesfull
this kind of work was not predominant around those times
always looked visually appealing
form over function?
Contributes to environment
this corresponds to my eco-friendly aspect
used lots of woods
oak
pine
however this means cutting down the trees to get it
need to use less environmentally friendly materials for certain structures and uses
would work practically
steel
for the strength of the buildings
would be more practical for different uses
concretes
would provide strength
more practical than natural materials in some cases
His works
influential to other designers
even modern day designers still follow his work
Arthur Brown
predominantly worked in 1900s to 1960s
modern buildings he has designed
imperial hotel in Japan
Taliesin
Robie House in Chicago
Unity Temple
Fallingwater
Art Deco
he was an advocate for this design movement
geometric shapes were often used in his work
squares
circles
semi circles
triangles
hexagons
pentagons
also found in nature
bee hives
honeycomb
leafs
rocks
mountains
one of the first to implicate this style into his designs
lots of symmetry would be used in his work
he believed in the visual appeal it brought
His work would often be very colourful
stand out above all others
bold
red
blue
green
even presented in the grass around it
yellow
eye catching
possibly unseen to that generation
multiple colours used in one
