His work heralded a new thinking in architecture, using innovation in design and engineering made possible by newly developed technology and materials. His creative ability extended far beyond the border or architecture to graphic design, and decorative elements for the home. In 1933, when Frank Lloyd Wright converted the original gymnasium of his hillside Home School located in Spring Green, Wisconsin, into a theater, he designed lighting pendents composed of rectangular light boxes and plywood shields to be suspended from the tall ceiling. These fixtures proved to be a lighting innovation, providing comfortable indirect light without the use of glass or shades. In 1952 when the theater was rebuilt following a fire, Wright modified the design of the original fixtures for use in the dining room, attaching them to the oak beam overhead. He found their soft indirect light so pleasing that he had a standing floor lamp of the same design fabricated for use in his own home, Taliesin. Each lamp is 9″ x 9″ at the base and 30 in. The lamp has 5, 7 Watt incandescent bulb as well as a dimmer switch. The item “Frank Lloyd Wright Taliesin 3 Table Lamp Cherry Wood” is in sale since Friday, October 4, 2019.
