About this Quote

This quote by Frank Lloyd Wright urges architects to focus on simpleness in their designs. He thinks that the overall design of a space need to be very carefully thought about in order to ensure that both comfort as well as utility are achieved, while still preserving a sense of elegance. Wright is suggesting that architects should not compromise convenience and also energy for elegance, but rather strive to produce a balance between both. He believes that simpleness is crucial to accomplishing this equilibrium, as it enables an extra reliable use of room and sources. By focusing on simplicity, architects can develop designs that are both cosmetically pleasing and also practical. Ultimately, Wright is promoting for a much more thoughtful approach to design, one that thinks about both type and also function.
