Cactus- Taliesin West


Cactus- Taliesin West
Originally uploaded by jmharper.
Frank Lloyd Wright was one of America's most famous, and important architects. His winter residence and studio, called Taliesin West is located in Scottsdale, and is open for tours. It is a fascinating insight into Wright's ideas and principles. For those not into design or architecture, it is just a cool building.

The tour covers the exterior site, as well as unique rooms used by Wright and his associates to model and present their designs. Two theaters in the complex are also included. If you have the time, the extended tour goes into the recently restored living room and private studio of Wright.
