Frank Lloyd Wright’s Hollyhock House

Commissioned by oil heiress Aline Barnsdall in 1919, the huge mansion was completed in 1921 and she asked that architect Frank Lloyd Wright incorporate her favorite flower (hollyhock) in the decorations all over the house. The stained glass windows are stunning in their geometry.
