Description
This interview was conducted by telephone.
Eric Lloyd Wright is Principal Architect of the firm Eric Lloyd Wright and Associates and is one of the founders of Wright Way Organic Resource Center in Malibu, California. During Eric's early years in architecture, he was an apprentice to his grandfather, Frank Lloyd Wright and his father, Lloyd Wright. His portfolio includes the restoration and renovation of Frank Lloyd Wright and Lloyd Wright works as well as residences and institutional buildings of his own design.
Eric's current focus is on the evolution of Organic Architecture and Green Building design. His design philosophy is rooted in the integration of ecology, social responsibility and beauty. Through Eric's years of design experience, he has developed an understanding that it is not the physical walls and roof, but the space within a building that forms its character - its soul. He gives careful thought to a project's physical, social and spiritual environment, with a focus on appropriate materials, quality, craftsmanship, and careful detailing.
In the following excerpts, Eric Wright discusses Frank Lloyd Wright’s architectural philosophy, the influence of Froebel blocks, and the Marin County Civic Center. []
