About this Quote

Frank Lloyd Wright's quote "Mechanization finest serves mediocrity" is a criticism of the industrialization of the contemporary world. He believed that the increasing dependence on devices and innovation was resulting in a decrease in imagination and workmanship. He argued that devices were making it simpler for individuals to produce average work, as they might depend on the devices to do the effort for them. He believed that this was causing a decrease in quality and workmanship, as individuals were no longer putting in the effort to create something special and special. He argued that mechanization was resulting in a homogenization of the world, as people were no longer striving to create something unique and special. He believed that this was leading to a reduction in quality and craftsmanship, which it was eventually detrimental to society.
