“Down to Earth provides just what the title promises, an antidote to all the contrived academic commentaries that merely obscure Wright’s architecture from close and honest experience. It draws instead on many years of day-to-day living with a fine work of Wright’s. And it also benefits from the fact that the author is herself an artist, alive to perceptions rather than pretentious theorizing.”—Donald Hoffman
