With 1300m\u00b2 of floor space, Frank Lloyd Wright’s<\/a> residence designed for\u00a0Herbert Johnson of the Johnson Wax Company<\/a> was (and still remains) a monumental proposition. Wright’s plan for Johnson centred upon a main nucleus dubbed the ‘Great Hall’ from which four separate wings (guests\/carport, master bed, children’s rooms and servant’s quarters) would converge upon. One of the key features of this central space was a large stepped dome with a brick column to its centre housing five fireplaces and showcasing a suite of Wright’s famous brick detailing. As with all his work, Wright was transfixed by the way light would move through the residence and so he utilised a banded system of skylights to filter an impressive amount inwards through the ceilings.<\/p>\n

As referenced by AD<\/a>, Wright expressed particular satisfaction in the realisation of this work, commenting that ‘Wingspread has the best brickwork I have seen in my life, and the materials of construction and the workmanship throughout are everywhere substantial’<\/p>\n
