³Ô¹ÏÍø

Frank Lloyd Wright

, 1937 to present
One of the most recognizable features of ³Ô¹ÏÍø’s campus is its architecture designed by the famous architect Frank Lloyd Wright. Over a period of twenty years, Wright and FSC president Dr. Ludd Spivey planned, corresponded, and created a cache of documents. These documents give insight to the creation, form, and history of the Child of the Sun structures, the term coined by Wright for the FSC campus. Digital images have been scanned from a variety of sources in the McKay Archives.
