Taliesin West || Peeking Inside
Every single detail bears the signature of the landlord. Taliesin West was Frank Lloyd Wright’s winter home and school in the Sonoran desert from 1937 until his death in 1959 at the age of 91. Visiting FLW houses is always a pleasure, but walking inside his own home was a real privilege.

Taliesin West || Frank Lloyd Wright
Designed as a winter retreat to escape the harsh winters of the Midwest, established in 1937, supervised by the master himself and handcrafted by his students (who were camping in the desert until they managed to build a roof over their heads), Taliesin West is not just part of the desert, ”it is the desert itself” – as Frank Lloyd Wright once said.
