Already well-known during his lifetime, Frank Lloyd Wright was recognized in 1991 by the American Institute of Architects "the greatest American architect of all time."

He promoted organic architecture, was a leader of the Prairie School movement of architecture, and developed the concept of the Usonian home. His work includes original and innovative examples of many different building types, such as offices, churches, schools, skyscrapers, hotels, and museums. Wright also often designed many of the interior elements of his buildings, such as the furniture and stained glass.
