[edit] Discussion
This incarnation of the firm was created on February 26, 1991. It replaced Taliesin Associated Architects, which was founded 1959 following the death of Frank Lloyd Wright, by the architects who, with Wright, comprised the Taliesin Fellowship, itself founded in 1932. The firm carried on with projects that had been under way at the time of Wright's death and eventually came to take on new projects. The firm had two primary offices, one at Taliesin, and the other at Taliesin West.
The firm's name was changed on February 26, 1991, becoming Taliesin Architects, Ltd., a for profit corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. In 1996, the firm had nearly 50 employees working in four offices: one at Taliesin and Taliesin West and one each in Madison, Wisconsin and Phoenix, Arizona. In June 2003, the firm was disbanded. According to a newsletter announcement dated July 15, 2003, a total of 8 architects (working in four pairs), remaining from Taliesin Architects, Ltd. had formed their own practices and planned to continue working out of the studios in Taliesin and Taliesin West. It is unknown for how long this arrangement lasted, but it as of 2011, it appears that all architectural practice has ceased.
