The document discusses Frank Lloyd Wright's Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York City. It provides background on Wright and his organic modern design philosophy. Wright spent 15 years designing the museum as a continuous spiral ramp gallery to house Solomon Guggenheim's non-objective painting collection. The unique building was controversial but is now considered one of Wright's most famous works and an architectural landmark housing many temporary exhibits.

12. Modern Movement The organic modern design
Let the design:
• be inspired by nature
and be sustainable,
healthy, conserving,
and diverse.
• unfold, like an
organism, from the
seed within.
• exist in the
"continuous present"
and "begin again and
again".
• follow the flows and be
flexible and adaptable.
• satisfy social, physical,
and spiritual needs.
• "grow out of the site"
and be unique.
• celebrate the spirit of
youth, play and
surprise.
• express the rhythm of
music and the power of
dance.
