You’re in the Wright Place!
Frank Lloyd Wright worked for the architectural firm of Adler & Sullivan in Chicago, Illinois from 1888 to 1893. During his time with the firm, he worked on a number of projects, including the Auditorium Building, the Wainwright Building, and the Gage Building.

Wright’s work with Adler & Sullivan was a formative experience for him. He learned a great deal about the craft of architecture from Louis Sullivan, and he also developed his own unique style. Wright’s Prairie School style, which emphasized horizontal lines and organic forms, was a direct result of his work with Adler & Sullivan.
After leaving Adler & Sullivan, Wright continued to work in Chicago. He designed a number of important buildings, including the Robie House and Unity Temple. He also began to experiment with new materials and technologies, such as reinforced concrete and glass.
Wright’s work had a profound impact on American architecture. He is considered one of the most important architects of the 20th century, and his ideas continue to influence architects around the world.

50 Lessons to Learn from Frank Lloyd Wright by Aaron Betsky (Author), Gideon Fink Shapiro (Author), Andrew Pielage (Photographer) (Amazon book)
Architecture and home design have always fascinated me. As a young girl I enjoyed drawing floor plans, rearranging my parent’s furniture and playing with Lincoln Logs and Legos. My passion has always been the architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright. Since I have been old enough to drive a car, I have visited Frank Lloyd Wright homes in the Chicagoland area and attended the Wright Plus house walks. Now, as co-owners of Northern Sky Designs, my husband & I are able to combine our website design skills and FLW travels to bring you this website! Enjoy!
