Exhibition Catalog - Lawrence Technological University

Introduction
The 70th construction anniversary of the Affl eck House offers an ideal opportunity to celebrate
the genius of Frank Lloyd Wright and the commitment of the College of Architecture
and Design at Lawrence Technological University to preserve its legacy. The Affl eck House
provides our students with an environment in which to study in a “living laboratory” of mid-
20th century architecture by an American master. Our students are inspired to produce artistic
and technical projects, some of which are included in this catalog with many more in
the exhibition. Since the Affl eck family has entrusted their house to us, College of Architecture
and Design faculty, staff, and students have tirelessly contributed their time and talents
toward the house’s care. It is with great pleasure that I present this catalog and exhibition in
commemoration of the Affl eck House construction that has inspired exceptional student work
and dedicated college efforts.
