Location

Overview

Taliesin West was architect Frank Lloyd Wright's winter home and school in the Arizona desert from 1937 until his death in 1959. The 600-acre property showcases Wright's philosophy of organic architecture integrated with the Sonoran Desert landscape. The campus features sculptures, architectural details, and carefully planned desert gardens that blur the line between architecture and landscape art.
