the work of Alexander Stewart Jolly was strongly influenced by Frank Lloyd Wright's school whose namesake believed in what?
Frank Lloyd Wright Frank Lloyd Wright (born Frank Lincoln Wright, June 8, 1867 – April 9, 1959) was a first generation Welsh-American architect, interior designer, writer and educator, who designed more than 1,000 structures, 532 of which were completed. Wright believed in designing structures that were in harmony with humanity and its environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture. This philosophy was best exemplified by the Fallingwater house (1935), which has been called "the best all-time work of American architecture".
Rajghat Besant School Over 80 years old, Rajghat besant School was born out of a vision of Krishnamurti to set up a spiritual institution that will transform minds. The Krishnamurti schools were founded with the aim of bringing about a radical transformation in human consciousness. While imparting academic proficiency, the schools attempt to awaken intelligence and sensitivity in the child in a non-competitive environment. In the year 1927, he charged Benegal Sanjiva Rao, a theosophist deputed by Annie Besant to work with him, to acquire lands in the Rajghat area next to river Ganga. The school endured great difficulty in the founding years owing to financing, staffing and land issues but stood the test of times. The landmark assembly hall constructed by architect of Tagore, Shri Surendranath Kar, stands as a testimony to the labor pains of this venerable institution. The Intent of the school is best captured in the words of the Founder:"“First of all there has to be an atmosphere of immensity; the feeling that I am entering a temple. There must be beauty, space, quietness, dignity. There must be a sense of all- togetherness in the student and teacher; a state of floration, a sense of flowering, a feeling of extraordinary sacredness. There must be in him a quality of otherness.”
