Springfield, Illinois, where Frank Lloyd Wright (whose birthday it is today) built his famous Dana-Thomas House, will soon be getting a tiny bit more FLW in the form of a mural on one of its downtown buildings. The mural, painted by artist Troy Freeman with permission from the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation, will feature a sumac design reminiscent of one Wright used in the Dana-Thomas House. It seems like all of the locals, or at least all of the locals that the State Journal-Register spoke to, are one hundred percent on board with the project—rare for a public art installation, but not surprising in this particular case.
