Frank Lloyd Wright designed awesome buildings, but his “usonian” urban planning ideas (i.e. Broadacre City) were fucking catastrophic.
I haven’t been able to find the reference again, but I read something that said he actually worked for the FHA and wrote some of their design guidelines – in other words, that he was directly responsible for the proliferation of suburban sprawl.
That coulda worked. If only it didn’t sound like an Ace Combat antagonist country. Osea, Usea, Yuktobonia, Belka, Aurelia, Usonia, see?
In truth, I’m just a Frank Lloyd Wright fanboy.
I miss a sub I followed on reddit, Frank Lloyd Wrong
