Frank Lloyd Wright is one of the most recognizable names in the world. “The 20th-Century Architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright” was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage list in 2019.

When it comes to architecture, Frank Lloyd Wright is one of the most recognizable names in the world. “The 20th-Century Architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright” was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage list in 2019 – a rare recognition highlighting the creativity and impact of an individual designer. During a conversation moderated by Gabrielle Phifer of NBC4 - Daytime Columbus, we will explore the key qualities of Wright’s work and its enduring appeal to wide audiences in the context of one specific example – the Westcott House in Springfield, Ohio.

 The Westcott House, designed 1906-1908, is Frank Lloyd Wright’s only Prairie style house in the state of Ohio. In the early 1940s, the substantial alterations affected the architecture so significantly that it no longer reflected the design intent of its architect. Due to these drastic changes, the house remained an undiscovered relic for many years- a lost Wright artifact. Thanks to the cooperative efforts of the Frank Lloyd Wright Building Conservancy and the Westcott House Foundation, today the Westcott House is a fully restored significant example of Wright's legacy, serving the public through a rich offering of tours, programs and events.
