The latest volume in MoMAs One on One series: a deep dive into the architectural giants arcadian vision of the modern habitat
When American architect Frank Lloyd Wright (18671959) proposed Broadacre City (192935), he advanced an astonishing claim: that the metropolis was obsolete. In its place, Broadacre was to be a Usonian synthesis, an unprecedented landscape unsullied by convention or history, consisting simply of architecture and acreage. With its low-density carpet of small plots, predominantly one- and two-story buildings, and seemingly infinite territory, the ruralized landscape of Broadacre would sustain new levels of individuality and freedom, far more democratic than a traditional metropolis could ever support.
This slim paperback reader, the latest volume in MoMAs One on One series, is penned by Juliet Kinchin, a former curator in the Department of Architecture and Design at the Museum of Modern Art, New York. She guides the reader through Wrights conception of Broadacre and its theoretical underpinnings and implications. Reproductions of Wrights preparatory sketches and photographs of his model city are interspersed throughout Kinchins account.
