Shared: Robie House designed by Frank Lloyd Wright 1909

A new Flickr Favorite by David Arpi.

The Robie House, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright for his client Frederick C. Robie, is considered one of the most important buildings in the history of American architecture. Designed in Wright’s Oak Park studio in 1908 and completed in 1910, the building inspired an architectural revolution. Its sweeping horizontal lines, dramatic overhangs, stretches of art glass windows and open floor plan make it a quintessential Prairie style house. Although it was designed one hundred years ago, the building remains a masterpiece of modern architecture.

A pessimistic frame of mind and a general lack of a ‘feel-good-feeling’ – thanks to the fear of the approaching board exams and the harshness of the fact that school life will finally come to an end – is popping the weirdest ideas in my head.
Just this afternoon, I started thinking about failure. And that got me thinking : how could I represent failure in a photograph? Failing at a task, perhaps? And that train of thought led me to this image.
