Frank Lloyd Wright // Unity Temple // North Elevation
Product Description
Unity Temple is a Unitarian Universalist church in Oak Park, Illinois built between 1905 and 1908. Wright’s intent with Unity Temple was to create two separate spaces for two different functions common in the modern church: a place for worship and a place for the service of man. The building is broken into two distinct spaces, allowing form to follow function. The plan consists of two buildings united by an entrance lobby where Wright’s intentions are engraved along the exterior stating, “For the worship of God and the service of man.” Unity Temple is considered by many architects to be the first modern style building in the world.

About the Designer
Frank Lloyd Wright (1867—1959) was an American architect, interior designer, writer and educator who designed more than 1,000 structures and completed 532 works in his lifetime. Wright believed in designing structures which were in harmony with humanity and its environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture. This philosophy was best exemplified by his design for Fallingwater (1935), which has been called "the best all-time work of American architecture". Wright was a leader of the Prairie School movement of architecture and developed the concept of the Usonian home, his unique vision for urban planning.
