These durable, plastic luminaries feature modern, graphic designs and are suitable for indoor and outdoor use.

Modgy Luminary Lanterns will not break or chip and eliminate concerns about fire hazards due to the use of flameless, floating candles (included).

Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) was a game-changing figure in modern architecture. His designs, driven by an in-depth comprehension of nature, reflect organic shapes. His mission to "improve life and create a better world to inhabit" is commemorated by the UNESCO World Heritage List and the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation.

Frank Lloyd Wright designed a house in Rye, NY for automotive importer Max Hoffman and a Jaguar dealership in the heart of New York City. The elegant, interlocking circles with square accents comprised the rug of Hoffman's living room, though it remained unwoven upon Wright's death in 1957. Eventually, the piece was brought to fruition and placed in the living room of Wright's Taliesin home in Spring Green, Wisconsin.

About the Artist, Frank Lloyd Wright

Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) remains an iconic figure in American architecture and design. Born in Richland Center, Wisconsin, Wright's career spanned over seven decades and left an indelible mark on the world of architecture. He was known for his visionary approach, pioneering organic architecture that seamlessly integrated buildings with their natural surroundings. Wright's most famous works include Fallingwater, a masterpiece of modern architecture built over a waterfall in Pennsylvania, and the Guggenheim Museum in New York City, which features a distinctive spiral design. His unique style, characterized by clean lines, open spaces, and innovative use of materials, has influenced countless architects and continues to inspire generations of designers worldwide. Wright's legacy as an architectural genius and his commitment to a harmonious relationship between nature and structures have solidified his place as one of America's most revered architects.

Throughout his career, Wright designed more than 1,000 structures, ranging from private residences and office buildings to places of worship and museums. He believed in creating architecture that responded to its environment and celebrated the spirit of the American landscape. The Prairie style, developed by Wright in the early 20th century, emphasized horizontal lines and open interior spaces, reflecting the vastness of the Midwestern prairie. His contributions to the field of architecture were not limited to design alone; Wright also embraced innovative construction techniques and advocated for the use of locally sourced materials. Beyond his architectural achievements, Wright was a complex personality, often attracting controversy and facing personal and professional challenges. Nevertheless, his lasting impact on the built environment and his influence on subsequent generations of architects have firmly established him as a visionary and celebrated American architect.
