Frank Lloyd Wright Buildings Near San Francisco

Marin Civic Center, CA Jan 4, 2002
Frank Lloyd Wright designed the Marin Civic Center in 1957. Like most of his buildings, the Civic Center integrates in the the natural shape of the landscape. Unlike most FLW buildings, the Civic Center has a rather futuristic look -- so futuristic that it was used in the movie Gattaca.
   
Most interior elements are curved; the building has very few sharp edges. The spire houses the chimney. The Center is located in San Rafael, just off Highway 101.
