Art and Culture in Phoenix
"In the foothills of the McDowell Mountains, Taliesin West houses the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation and the School of Architecture at Taliesin. Building it as his winter residence, the famous architect tested structural ideas and building details here, and used them to showcase the desert environment. Wright designed the structures considering environmental factors in an age when no one else did, and used sand from the desert washes and stone from the premises, integrating the buildings in their setting. A National Historic Landmark, Taliesin West is open for visitors and offers tours." - MATADOR_NETWORK
