Inside a Woodland Home Built Over Water to Become One With Nature
Today, AD travels to the woodlands of Oregon to tour the breathtaking Newberg Residence, a remarkable home designed to exist in harmony with the nature surrounding it. Perched over an old logging pond, this one-of-a-kind home is the work of Jim Cutler of Cutler Anderson Architects, who envisioned a structure not imposed on the land, but integrated with it. Built like a bridge over water, the residence is a testament to Cutler’s philosophy: to never harm natural life through his work, but instead to foster and encourage it. In the decade since its construction, the surrounding landscape has flourished, with wildlife, water, and woodland thriving around the home.
Inside Frank Lloyd Wright’s Design Workshop Built From The Desert
Today, Architectural Digest travels to Scottsdale, Arizona, to tour Taliesin West—Frank Lloyd Wright’s iconic desert laboratory and winter home. Designed as a seasonal escape from the brutal Wisconsin winters, Taliesin West became both a personal sanctuary and a working campus for Wright and his architecture students. Nestled in the stunning foothills of the McDowell Mountains, this National Historic Landmark was built almost entirely by Wright’s apprentices. More than just a building, it’s a prime embodiment of his philosophy of organic architecture, where structure and landscape are one.
How Frank Lloyd Wright Let Nature Shape His Homes
Today, AD is delving into the work of legendary architect Frank Lloyd Wright and exploring three of his designs: Tirranna, the David & Gladys Wright House, and Toy Hill House. Wright’s philosophy of organic architecture aimed to unite structure and landscape–he believed a home should not be placed upon the land but grow from it, standing in harmony with its natural surroundings. Watch as we tour a collection of Wright’s homes designed according to this philosophy and discover how the famous architect let nature shape his work.
Inside Frank Lloyd Wright’s Hidden Woodland Utopia
Today, AD travels to Pleasantville, New York, to tour Toy Hill House, one of the architectural gems in Frank Lloyd Wright’s visionary Usonia neighborhood. In the 1940s, a group of New York City architects, guided by Wright himself, set out to build a modern, affordable utopia—a community rooted in design, nature, and innovation. This resulted in a stunning group of mid-century modern homes nestled in the woods, just an hour from Manhattan. Join us as we explore how Wright’s iconic design principles are brought to life in this small-but-mighty masterpiece. 2022 The Estate of Pedro E. Guerrero
