a four-story skylight thus introducing innovations in indirect lighting (Great Architecture of the World, 226).
For more than 70 years, and until his death in 1959, Frank Lloyd Wright continued to design fascinating structures. Both creative and daring, his engineering genius and implementation of new techniques marveled even his worse critics. He introduced the world to prairie style housing which is still used today. His mastery in organic technique not only blended into the surrounding environment but also allowed people to see and appreciate the world around them. His creativeness and boldness made him one of the most criticized and most admired architects in the world.
