Arizona - Taliesin West and Cosanti


On our first morning in Arizona, we visited Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin West which he built in 1937.  It was his  winter home and studio, an architectural campus in the Sonoran desert northeast of Scottsdale.  Architects are trained here in this amazing setting to this day.  We saw beauty in the simplicity, use of color in the architecture and in nature.





In the afternoon, we visited Cosanti, where Paolo Soleri has created an interesting environment in which his special Soleri bells are cast in bronze.
