My daughter asked why Frank Lloyd Wright was so popular, instead of boring her with picture books about the architect we took a trip to Florida Southern College which is located about an hour from us in Lakeland, Florida.  I was interested in what her reaction would be to the innovative designs that still capture peoples attention.  The buildings impressed her, "they were so different, like nothing else out there," she said.  She was attracted to all the unique details and hidden nooks throughout the 5 buildings.  It reminded me of the first time I saw them and how I come back to them every couple years to enjoy Wrights' architecture.
