"Frank Lloyd Wright is perhaps best remembered for his unmatched mastery of the organic style of architecture. Less well known, are the contributions Wright brought to landscape and site design. His creations in this area reflect a holistic, sustainable, environmentally sensitive utilization of plants, climate, solar power, and natural lighting. Wrightscapes is the first definitive book to address Frank Lloyd Wright's landscapes and environments. Wrightscapes also chronicles how and why Wright's famous ecological sensibilities were established, delving into Japanese and European influences. Wrightscapes includes previously unpublished listings of plants recommended for Wright's Prairie House landscapes, and a detailed listing of "do's and don'ts" for owners of any home designed by Frank Lloyd Wright."
