Abstract

When Is a House Not a House?
Bauer, C. K. | January 25, 1933 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information about the books "Housing America" and "The Disappearing City," by Frank Lloyd Wright. Both of these books are inclined to be romantic about the machine as an instrument of progress, which has something to do with the fact that as studies in the future of housing they are both weakened at the start by an incomplete definition of a house. Wright hates cities, loves the country, and believes in the freedom of the individual. These qualities of his have already produced some excellent buildings and a magnificent "Autobiography."
