On the Road……Frank Lloyd Wright’s Atrium Garden
I recently discovered a fantastic blog, Tokyo Green Space, which examines ways that biodiversity and urban form coexist in Tokyo. It inspired me to take a closer look at the dialogue between nature and urban design in my own backyard.
On a lunch time bike ride to the Civic Center, I made these pictures of the ground floor garden inside Wright’s famous architectural commission.
An earlier post included images of the outside of the building.
Nice shots. I really like this building.
I took almost the exact same photos the day I went to get my wedding certificate.

I’m in San Diego now but originally from Northern California and your blog often gives me a longing to be back in the Bay Area. Keep up the good work.
