Dear students,

Here below is the reading intended for you to do your best in quick reading. Try to read
and answer the questions quickly and let me know honestly how fast you had made.

A distinctively American architecture began with Frank Lloyd Wright, who had taken to
heart the admonition that form should follow function and who thought of buildings not as
separate architectural entities but as parts of an organic whole that included the land, the
community, and the society. In a very real way the houses of colonial New England and
some of the southern plantations had been functional, but Wright was the first architect to
make functionalism the authoritative principle for public as well as for domestic buildings.
As early as 1906 he built the Unity Temple in Oak Park, Illinois, the first of those churches
that did so much to revolutionize ecclesiastical architecture in the United States. Thereafter
he turned his genius to such
miscellaneous structures as houses, schools, office buildings, and factories, among them the
famous Larkin Building in Buffalo, New York, and the Johnson Wax Company building in
Racine, Wisconsin.
