Lloyd Wright, Frank. Architecture and Modern Life. Second Edition. 1937. Book is in very good condition; dust jacket is good plus condition—endpapers are discolored, and jacket shows a ½-inch chip to the upper spine and a repaired tear to the upper front cover. Co-written with Baker Brownell.
Frank Lloyd Wright joins forces with a Northwestern University professor of philosophy to contemplate the nature of architecture and its ideal relationship to man. They quickly distinguish design from engineering—the former must consider values, whereas the latter is concerned only with science. They also discuss the nature of the contemporary metropolis. It is a well-produced book, with heavy paper and beautiful photogravure plates. It is also uncommon—very much so in dust jacket. It would make a great gift for an architect or interior designer.
