A growing archive of original materials from the organic architecture movement
The Organic Architecture + Design Archives (OA+D) is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) dedicated to preserving and advancing the legacy of organic architecture and design. Through the stewardship of original drawings, photographs, manuscripts, and design records, OA+D supports a design tradition rooted in harmony with nature, material integrity, and human-centered innovation.
The archive includes materials connected to architects such as Frank Lloyd Wright, Bruce Goff, and Paolo Soleri, with additional collections continuing to be entrusted for long-term preservation and access.
What We Do
The OA+D Archives actively:
Preserve original architectural drawings, documents, and related materials
Catalog and digitize collections to expand access
Support research, exhibitions, and publications
Develop and maintain a growing digital archive and online catalog
Access and Growth
As collections continue to emerge and be entrusted to the archive, OA+D works to ensure these materials are properly preserved, organized, and made accessible for researchers, institutions, and the public.
Ongoing support makes it possible to expand the archive, strengthen preservation efforts, and increase access through digital tools and research initiatives.

Why It Matters
The materials preserved by OA+D document a uniquely American approach to architecture—one that continues to influence how we think about design, environment, and the built world.
Many of these works are at risk of being lost due to age, neglect, or dispersal. Preserving them requires ongoing care, resources, and expertise.
By supporting OA+D, you contribute directly to the preservation and accessibility of these materials, ensuring they remain available for research, education, and future generations.
