Frank Lloyd Wright commissions

CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER

Frank Lloyd Wright lived an exceptionally long and productive professional life. John Geiger was interested in the ebb and flow of architectural commissions in the Wright studio over time. This search shows Wright commissions for given decades and years, though the project dates often imply the completion date for a commission rather than the sometimes lengthy period involved with development of a design. Some entries also refer to drawings made by Wright earlier in his career prior to establishing his own practice.
