Our Favorite Home Goods from Amazon’s New Frank Lloyd Wright Shop

Falling Water may be one of the most famous homes in the world and its designer one of America’s most prolific and beloved architects. Frank Lloyd Wright designed over 1,000 structures during his more than 70-year career, but he didn’t just design buildings. Wright oversaw every detail of his edifices, right down to the windows, creating custom designs for each project.

Now, the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation has announced a new initiative to remind people of Wright’s other side. Partnering with various artists, the Wright Foundation has granted licensing to certain companies to allow for the creation of a line of products that feature the architect’s iconic patterns.

Here’s a roundup of our favorite home decor pieces from the new lifestyle brand now available on Amazon.

What to Buy from Amazon’s Frank Lloyd Wright Shop

While his intricate art glass window patterns get all of the attention, Wright also designed a patented set of Luxfer Prisms for the American Luxfer Prism Company. This unique pattern can be seen in the bronze frame of the clock as well as in silhouette on the off-white face.

Frank Lloyd Wright Tree of Life Design Doormat

The most famous pattern of art glass Wright ever created, the Tree of Life, was designed for the home of Wright’s friend and client Darwin D. Martin. The simple geometric form is a timeless look that creates a stylish welcome mat for your visitors.

Frank Lloyd Wright Beachy House Mailbox

Don’t let the name fool you, this isn’t a mailbox inspired by beach decor. The inspiration comes from the gable-roofed Peter A. Beachy House, remodeled by Wright in 1905. The powder-coated steel mailbox has a trim pattern reminiscent of the custom windows that can be seen on the second floor of Beachy House. Who knew so much style could go into something as simple as a mailbox?

Frank Lloyd Wright Beth Shalom Globe

Frank Lloyd Wright is best known for his home designs, but the architect worked on countless public buildings as well. The Beth Shalom Temple in Pennsylvania is known for its pyramidal shape. Wright created custom pyramidal planters for the inside of the temple and it is this design that inspired the base of this illuminated desktop globe.

Frank Lloyd Wright Art Glass Designs Absorbent Coasters

If you’ve invested in good quality furniture, you know coasters are a must. Nothing is more frustrating than those unsightly water rings. Coasters typically aren’t a “high style” item, but this set of four inspired by Wright’s famous art glass windows puts a classy twist on a common item.

KAF Home Frank Lloyd Wright Printed Table Placemat Set of Four

While we love the look of a clean, unadorned table, these placemats are hard to pass up. Inspired by an art glass concept created by Wright but never used in one of his homes, the simple monochromatic colors, with just a small pop of orange, make a great addition to any style table.

KAF Home Frank Lloyd Wright Printed Throw Pillow Cover

Saguaro Forms and Cactus Flowers is one of Wright’s most popular patterns, despite the fact that it was rejected for use by Liberty Magazine. The complex and brightly colored Saguaro was reimagined for these 20 x 20″ throw pillow covers, creating a contemporary twist on an iconic design.

While these are our seven favorite products from the new line, they are far from the only Wright-inspired pieces you can get. The new collection also includes everything from house numbers to luggage tags and even socks. Proceeds from every purchase go towards the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation and their continued efforts to preserve the legacy of America’s favorite architect.

St. Andrew’s Beach House Says ‘No Thank You’ to Oversized Vacation Homes
st andrews beach house australia 1

The trend of “McMansions” here in the United States seems to be dying down. Ever since the housing crisis in 2008, the country has seen more and more people looking to downsize for more modest homes. But Australia never got the tiny house memo and the coastline of the country is quickly becoming filled with oversized vacation homes. These massive structures, used just a few days a week, seemed wasteful to a recent client of architectural firm Austin Maynard. He challenged the team to buck the trend and create a simple weekend escape hidden in the dunes.

Located on the southern coast of Victoria in the Shire of Mornington Peninsula, St. Andrew’s Beach House stands out from its neighbors for all the right reasons. The area, which is along St. Andrew’s Beach, is crowded with enormous vacation homes. Yet turn down the dirt driveway to St. Andrew’s Beach House and you’ll discover a secret coastal retreat unlike any other.

Casa Don Juan Offers a Hilltop Escape from the Outside World
casa don juan 6

In today’s fast-paced society of constant stimulation, more and more people are seeking out peaceful retreats to bring a sense of calm to their hectic lives. Minimalist homes are ideal for this - pared-down spaces with little ornamentation create a meditative vibe and allow for a chance to disconnect from the outside world. Most minimalist houses are simple structures with a mix of natural materials and a neutral color palette. But architect Emilio Lopez took a different approached when he created Casa Don Juan - a hilltop home that’s put a new twist on this simple style.

Located in Manabí Province on the coast of Ecuador, Casa Don Juan threw the “simple structure” rule of minimalism out the window. Instead, he imagined the home as a kind of funnel, directing views out and allowing nature (and ocean breezes) to flow in. The result is one of the most uniquely-shaped homes we’ve seen. Positioned to face east into the forest and west out to the sea, the walls and roof dramatically angle in at the center, forming an hourglass shape. While there are a few windows scattered along these angled sides, the east and west walls are where Lopez wanted the focus to be. He made these entirely out of glass, forcing a connection with the outdoors, one of the main philosophies of the minimalist movement.

Mad Lab’s Utopia Collection Reimagines Renaissance Architecture as Handsome Home Decor
mad lab utopia collection antonio serrano madlab 1

Everyone knows that a big part of Italy’s charm is the beautiful Renaissance architecture. The 15th century was all about striving for perfection in all aspects of life, which in turn would create the “perfect city.” Renaissance architecture achieved this perceived perfection by looking back to the Greek and Roman times and incorporating symmetry, math, proportion, and order. The results were visually appealing, ornate buildings (like St. Peter’s Basilica). It’s this idea of architectural perfection that influenced a new line of housewares from Mad Lab.

The Utopia Collection is set of serving pieces disguised as a scaled-down city. Consisting of three jars, two trays, a serving platter, and a fruit bowl, the line is a modern day interpretation of the Renaissance style. The pieces are made from carefully carved wood and showcase architectural shapes important to the style of the time, including the arch and spire. The three jars take on iconic Renaissance building shapes, the serving trays and platter represent classic Italian courtyards, and the fruit bowl is a reimagining of the palazzo.
