To Wright, this material was a highly expressive, decorative, and practical approach to create monumental yet affordable buildings. Indeed, some of his most iconic structures, including the Ennis House in Los Angeles, utilized the textile block system. However, like so many of Wright’s experiments with materials and engineering, textile block has posed major challenges to generations of building owners, architects, and conservators who have struggled with the system’s material and structural performance.

  • Wright in Wisconsin
    Wright in Wisconsin Walk in Frank Lloyd Wright's footsteps to discover the architect's inspiration for design and the foundation of a true legacy. Born and raised in Wisconsin, Wright rooted many of his design principals in the landscape of his surroundings. Join the Martin House travel team as we discover Wright's home state and many of his designs including: Taliesin, Wright's famed home, studio and school for many years; the Jacobs House, the S.C. Johnson building, Annunciation Church, the Unitarian Meeting House, and more! Participants will enjoy guided tours, a taste of local cuisine and motor coach transportation through Wisconsin's beautiful landscape. Please see below for more detailed information on the places we will be visiting in Wisconsin. The Fred B. Jones House | Penwern (1900-03) Lake Delavan, Wisconsin Designed as a summer home for Oak Park businessman Fred B. Jones, this estate consists of four structures: a main house, boathouse, gate lodge and stable, which were built on a 10-acre site with 600 feet of lakefront and a commanding view of Delavan Lake. Penwern is privately owned and open to the public only for special Frank Lloyd Wright-related events. The Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church (1956-61) Wauwatosa, Wisconsin Located in a suburb of Milwaukee, this church was one of Frank Lloyd Wright's last major commissions; construction was completed after the architect’s death. The basic design of the church is inspired by the architect’s reinterpretation of two traditional Byzantine forms: the Greek cross and the dome. American System-Built Homes (1915-17) Milwaukee, Wisconsin Throughout his career, Frank Lloyd Wright took special interest in designing beautiful yet affordable homes for moderate-to- low-income families.
