Exploring one of Frank Lloyd Wright's signature buildings in photos
Frank Lloyd Wright is one of the most renowned names in architecture, with his signature style of "organic architecture," a reinterpretation of the principles of nature through blending manmade materials with natural sunlight, greenery and other natural elements. One such example of Wright's ingenuity is on the SC Johnson campus, located in scenic Racine, Wisconsin. The campus features two buildings — the Administration Building and the Research Tower — designed by Wright himself, and the Norman Foster-designed Fortaleza Hall, which currently houses an exhibit featuring various plates from the world famous Wasmuth Portfolio, a coveted collection of framed lithographs. In addition, the exhibit features artifacts of Wright's works on loan from the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. Mashable and SC Johnson led a group of photographers on a tour of the campus to document Wright's architectural masterpieces. Below are some of the shots captured during the tour as well as a sneak peek at the current exhibit, The SC Johnson Gallery: At Home with Frank Lloyd Wright, available for visitors to tour.

South Korean Designer Finds Process and Potential In Colored Acrylic
Seoul-based Sohyun Yun is first and foremost an advocate for what she calls “intuitive” design — work that looks and feels like it wants to be looked at and felt. Her pieces are by turns ecstatic and empathic, tethered to tradition but not beholden to it. Her practice as of late thrives on (and shines in) partnerships of a global scope, from designing hypnotic “wavy trays” for the aesthetically-minded Danish jeweler Pernille Lauridsen, collaborating on seating with San Francisco-based graphic designer Jules Tardy, and designing acrylic plates for a range of light boxes from Japanese online concept store Studio The Blue Boy. An avowed polymath who often works from home, these projects help Yun synthesize her various skill sets — she studied industrial design as well as graphic design and fine art — and reach an audience outside her native Korea. We caught up with the designer over email to chat about color matching, Korean aesthetics and more dream collaborations.
