Shedding Some Light On Solar Hemicycles

I came across an interesting look at the ideas behind Frank Lloyd Wright's Solar Hemicycle design for the Jacob's II House.

Posted by Ryan Moody on his blog, sprout dc, he walks through why this particular Wright home is significant as an especially strong example of considering a home's relationship with its site and how to capture the natural warming power of the sun. Follow the link to read Ryan's post and get a glimpse at a few photos of this amazing home design.
