Description:
In 1974, Maya Moran and her husband purchased a dilapidated Frank Lloyd Wright house in Riverside, Illinois. In Down to Earth, Moran tells how she spent the next twenty years resurrecting Wright's 1904 Tomek House, transforming it into both a home and an architectural gem. Moran describes in vivid and lively language how Wright's architectural touch had great impact on her life as she took on the roles of contractor, maintenance woman, decorator, furniture and landscape designer, gardener, curator, and tour guide. Illustrating her story with nearly ninety photographs and many of Wright's own drawings, Moran describes not only an early Frank Lloyd Wright Prairie house and its architectural significance but also the people who have lived in it.
