Wright's Apprentices:
Living and Learning at Taliesin

The featured speaker was Yumi Doi, an architect and former Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation board member who has lived and worked at Taliesin West, in Scottsdale, AZ, for nearly 15 years. She presented an overview of the two Taliesins and the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture. She was then joined by former apprentices who returned to work in Japan after studying at Taliesin and have, to varying degrees, implemented Wright's organic design principles in their own buildings: Yoshimasa Fujii, Masatoshi Handa, Kenji Ichinomiya, Ryosuke Isoya and Ichiro Nomura.
