点评:The design and architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright is enjoyable to take in and Taliesin West was no different. I thought the tour was well done and enjoyed the narration of the self guided tour. The snippets of Frank Lloyd Wright talking were interesting. It did a good job of brining out, explaining his design concepts while experiencing them first hand. In a few areas the ability to sit in his designed furniture while taking in audio information on the room and furniture as a cool experience. It was interesting learning about Wright's work that was completed in AZ.
A couple other thoughts:
* I am on the fence on a self guided auto tour with headphones vs. a live guided tour. To some extent it was nice as gave ability to hear everything and go back if didn't hear something easily. It allowed one to be kind of immersed in the tour. On the other hand it also made it kind of impersonal. Even if in a group of people everyone has headphones on and any shared experience is a bit diminished. There were a few guides along the tour for questions, but..
* The tour fee is a bit high at approx. $40, especially when taking into account very little interaction with any guides or personal touches of a tour.
* Ability to see additional areas within the property with the core tour would have been nice.
I am glad I took the tour and added another Frank Lloyd Wright tructure to my list of toured buildings. If you are not familiar with Frank Lloyd Wright this will give you a good overview of some of his concepts and all the structures he has played a part in.
翻译:弗兰克·劳埃德·赖特的设计和建筑令人赏心悦目,塔里埃森西也不例外。我觉得这次旅行安排得很好,也很喜欢自助游的解说。弗兰克·劳埃德·赖特的解说片段很有意思。它很好地展现了他的设计理念,同时又能亲身体验。在一些地方,能够坐在他设计的家具里,同时聆听关于房间和家具的音频信息,真是一次很酷的体验。了解赖特在亚利桑那州完成的作品也很有趣。
其他几点想法:
* 我对带耳机的自助汽车游和现场导游犹豫不决。某种程度上,现场导游很好,因为它能让人听到所有的声音,如果听不清楚,还可以返回。这让人有点沉浸在旅程中。另一方面,它也让旅程显得有些缺乏人情味。即使在一群人中,每个人都戴着耳机,任何共同的体验都会有所减弱。沿途有几位导游解答问题,但是……
* 大约40美元的导游费有点高,尤其是考虑到与导游的互动很少,而且导游的服务也比较私人化。
* 如果能在核心游览中参观更多区域就更好了。
我很高兴参加了这次游览,并将弗兰克·劳埃德·赖特的另一座建筑添加到我的参观清单中。如果您不熟悉弗兰克·劳埃德·赖特,这将帮助您很好地了解他的一些设计理念以及他参与设计的所有建筑。
