"Frank Lloyd Wright began his architectural practice at a time when glass was becoming more widely available. The two seemed destined for each other: glass was the ideal medium through which Wright was able to accomplish his goal of opening up Americans' living spaces and releasing them from the boxy confines of solid walls. Frank Lloyd Wright's Glass Designs explores the many facets of Wright's work with this 'magical material'-from his world-renowned art glass designs to glass mosaics, prism glass, and innovations such as tubular glass and invisible joints in plate glass windows. For Wright, glass broke down the barrier between outside and inside and allowed him to frame views of nature, his constant inspiration. It provided protection from the elements while it presented another means to integrate within a building. These samplers showcase the work of Frank Lloyd Wright, one of the world's best-known architects. Other volumes of the series look at his life and his own three homes, Prairie houses, Utopian houses, public buildings, first house, California houses, Fallingwater, furnishings, dining rooms, fireplaces, and lost buildings."
