In 2019 鈥淭he 20th Century Architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright鈥� was inscribed as World Heritage. Two of the eight sites, Unity Temple and Robie House, were recently meticulously restored to their original condition and a third, Taliesin West, was the subject of a Preservation Master Plan and ADA Study. All three sites required in-depth project preparation in the form of research, forensic investigations, mockups and planning. This session will present a richly illustrated discussion of these three projects.
