Frank Lloyd Wright in Second Life



The Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation has created a Museum in the virtual world of Second Life.   I did a brief run through of the museum complex and liked what I saw. 



The main building has two wings; personal photographs and biographical information in one side and a Gallery on the Mayer May House on the other side. 



There is also a rooftop area showing note cards on various buildings from his career.



The remainder of the complex houses various shops and information centers along with a sprinkling of virtual recreations of several of his more well known projects.  Each of these recreations has an information card with a photograph of the real life version.

There is a museum gift shop as well as several shops unaffiliated with the museum that offers virtual goods. 

I greatly enjoyed my tour of the Frank Lloyd Wright Museum in Second Life.
