Frank Lloyd Wright Designs for Glass Boxed Notecards

Frank Lloyd Wright (American, 1867–1959) loved to work in glass. He regarded it as “the materialization of light, the weightless medium of sight,” and used it in innovative ways, providing a glinting counterpoint to the solid mass of traditional building materials. Over the course of a long career, Wright expanded his use of glass, diminishing the visual barrier between inside and outside and creating dazzling effects of light within his houses. This set of notecards presents four designs adapted from Frank Lloyd Wright’s work in art glass. These geometric patterns represent some of his most spectacular ornamental achievements.
