Lance Taylor Law
LanceTaylorLaw.com
Site Design and Construction
Lance Taylor Law, Ltd. is a small law firm specializing in elder law, estate planning and real estate. The office is based in Oak Park, IL, just outside of Chicago.
As many of its clients are local residents, I wanted the design to draw from iconic local imagery. Oak Park and the nearby suburbs are known for the architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright, and his style is immediately recognizable anyway, so I went an-image-searching. I came across some stained glass windows (right) he had done for a kindergarten building in Riverside, the Avery Coonley Playhouse. The window strikes a nice balance between playful and professional, even gentle - perfect for this site.
