Paolo Soleri (1919-2013), renowned as the founder of Cosanti and Arcosanti, left an indelible mark as an artist, architect, philosopher, and urban planner. Trained under the tutelage of Frank Lloyd Wright at Taliesin West in Arizona and Taliesin in Spring Green, Wisconsin, Soleri established his home and studio, Arcosanti (now known as simply Cosanti), in Arizona cementing his legacy as a pioneer of visionary design and thought.
