Description
Explore the visionary world of Frank Lloyd Wright with our exclusive volume on the Broadacre City Project. This essential addition to the MoMA One on One series delves deep into Wright's revolutionary ideas presented in 1934-1935, where he argued that the traditional metropolis was outdated. In its place, he envisioned a stunning Usonian landscape characterized by 'architecture and acreage'—an innovative concept that emphasizes individuality, freedom, and democratic living. Wright's Broadacre City proposes a unique low-density environment of small plots featuring one- and two-story buildings across a sprawling 4-square-mile area. This remarkable community is designed to host only 1,400 families, offering a balance that transcends typical urban, rural, or suburban models. Ideal for architecture enthusiasts, students, and collectors alike, this volume not only highlights Wright's architectural genius but also invites readers to ponder the changing dynamics of urban planning and lifestyle. Immerse yourself in the ethos of sustainable living and the pioneering spirit of one of America’s greatest architects. Don't miss the chance to own this beautifully illustrated book that sheds light on the true meaning of community and space. Make Frank Lloyd Wright's Broadacre City Project part of your collection today, and discover how this ambitious vision still resonates in contemporary architecture and urbanism.
