- Wright was an early proponent of total design. Unsatisfied with what was available in designing a given space or home, he invented what was needed, developing a language of architectural detail and styling that is unique and which extended to the tables, bookcases, easy chairs, sofas, and cabinets to rugs and murals to stonework to stained glass light screens, which served as windows and doors and room partitions to lighting.
