He is a 26 year old architect, artist, and designer from Texas, now based in New York City. I recently stumbled upon him while research innovative products/furniture. He designs furniture with unique objects like tennis balls or the balls that come from a jungle gyms ball pit.

Creative/Innovative Artist #4

ARTIST:
FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT

He was an American architect, interior designer, furniture designer, and a writer/educator. He designed more than 1000 projects and had 500 completed. Fallingwater is one of my favorite homes that I have ever visited. Located in Pennsylvania outside of Pittsburgh, Fallingwater was built in 1935. One of the most innovative aspects is how he incorporated nature into designing his home. The home was built partly over a waterfall on Bear Run. In 1966, Fallingwater was designated a National Historic Landmark.

Creative/Innovative Artist #2

ARTIST:
ALVAR AALTO

One of my personal favorite designers is Alvar Aalto. He was a Finnish architect and designer. He occasionally is called "The Father of Modernism" in the nordic countries. This particular chair was designed for the Paimio Sanatorium of 1929-32. It was innovative because it demonstrates the possibilities of bentwood in a graceful, scrolling form, devoid of right angles and sharp geometry.

One of my most favorite innovations I have seen is the light generating wall covering. It is made of LEDs which can be dimmed to provide as much or as little light as possible.
