Thorncrown Chapel, remotely located in the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas, USA, was designed by E. Fay Jones, a protégé of the pioneering architect Frank Lloyd Wright. It is internationally acclaimed for its innovative design, respect for natural materials, and sensitivity to its surroundings. Winner of the American Institute of Architects’ Design of the Year Award for 1981 and the AIA’s prestigious 25 Year Award, Thorncrown Chapel is ranked by the American Institute of Architects as the fourth most important building of the twentieth century.
