Taliesin West

Something you may not know about me is my love for Architecture. When it comes to admiring some of the best to ever do it, you cannot escape the name Frank Lloyd Wright. Located in Scottsdale, Arizona, Taliesin West began construction in 1937 as the creators winter home. To say that the man created a deep connection with the desert landscape would be speaking lightly. Everything on the grounds seems to sprout from the ground itself. There’s a sort of magic in the air here.

Taliesin West is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a National Historic Landmark. It is also home to The School of Architecture at Taliesin. If you decide to take the guided tour, which I highly recommend, you will learn all about the grounds history, construction, fires on the property, and the active school grounds. Please be courteous of the volunteers and the students you may run into while visiting.

Camera: Fujifilm X-Pro2, 18mm f/2 lens.
