Frank Lloyd Wright March Balloons

Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) is recognized worldwide as one of the greatest architects of the twentieth century. His work heralded a new thinking in architecture, using innovation in design and engineering made possible by newly developed technology and materials.

Noritake was the original manufacturer of dinnerware designed by Wright for his largest commission, the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo.

Wright created this abstract design as one of a series of twelve covers based on monthly themes for Liberty Magazine in 1927. The finished designs were never published because the magazine thought they were too abstract and radical.

March Balloons is an exuberant celebration of spring. The design features a series of colorful, balloon-like shapes that float across the composition, symbolizing the joy and renewal associated with the arrival of spring.

Frank Lloyd Wright March Balloons dinnerware is manufactured by Noritake in partnership with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation.
