[Bradley White · Rating 4 out of 5]

I love the architecture of the Prairie School of architectural style especially the designs (if somewhat clichéd) of Walter Griffin, Marion Griffin, and Frank Lloyd Wright. This book concentrates on the Griffins work within Australia (Canberra, Castlecrag, Melbourne Uni and others).

The residential designs of Castlecrag are particularly wonderful.
