Would You Attend an Architecture Fantasy Camp?
Created for nonarchitects, the Frank Lloyd Wright Architecture Fantasy Camp takes place at the Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio in Oak Park, IL, from Oct. 4-7. No architecture experience is necessary, and the designer you are paired with will help you create a cottage, remodel your kitchen, or even create a dream home.
On the Market: A Frank Lloyd Wright Home in Central California
If you have a love for midcentury architecture and $2.7 million to spare, then consider moving to California's Central Valley to live in the beautiful, wonderfully maintained Fawcett House. This 3,700-square-foot home was designed by the famous modern architect Frank Lloyd Wright in 1955, and it was completed in 1961, two years after Wright died. The six-bedroom, four-and-a-half bath home is situated on 80 acres, and hunkers down into the farming landscape, with a low-pitched roof and angular wings that reach out into the fields.
Coveted Crib: Remodeled to Embrace the Outdoors
Architect Sarah Robinson believes that homes should be inspiring as well as practical. Living in a home built or remodeled by Robinson will likely mean that you will not only have a home that is functional for your daily life, but will also inspire you to live that life more fully. This Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture graduate accomplishes such a lofty goal in many ways, including consideration of how to marry a building site with the building's design.
Cool Idea: Frank Lloyd Wright in Thread
Craftster member PencilNeck's embroidery creativity has bowled me over. She made this embroidery of a Frank Lloyd Wright blueprint as a Christmas gift for a family member who works with architectural design. She embroidered almost exclusively with backstitching for the project, and found blue floss to match the blueprint color.
Guess Who Made This Chair?
This master bedroom features a papa bear chair, which sits in a Frank Lloyd Wright house on the Potomac River. Can you tell me the name of the designer of the papa bear chair?
On the Market: Frank Lloyd Wright's Palmer House
The Palmer House — a 2,000-square-foot, one-story home in Ann Arbor, MI, designed by famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright — is on the market for the first time since it was commissioned in 1950. The asking price is $1.5 million. The three-bedroom, two-bath Usonian-style home sits on 1.5 wooded acres, close to the University of Michigan, where its former owner worked.
Coveted Crib: The Hollyhock House
The Hollyhock House was the first house Frank Lloyd Wright built in Southern California. It was commissioned for Aline Barnsdall, an independent woman who was passionate for the arts and theater. Take a look at the slideshow to see the stunning details — including original furniture made by the architect — of this home.
Coveted Crib: Frank Lloyd Wright's Massaro House
Perhaps the most famous architect of the 20th century, Frank Lloyd Wright left behind a legacy of fascinating houses, as well as amazing sketches for homes that were never built. In 2007, one of these sketches, for a home to be built into a large piece of bedrock on Lake Mahopac in upstate New York, was finally designed and constructed. Owner Joe Massaro hired architect and Wright scholar Thomas Heinz to flesh out the design from only five original sketches.
This Just In: Diane Keaton Flips a Lloyd Wright
According to Real Estalker, Diane Keaton, a well-known property flipper with an interest in historic California homes, has flipped and put the Lloyd Wright designed Alfred Newman Estate in Pacific Palisades on the private market. For those of you who aren't exactly archi-philes, Lloyd Wright was the often overshadowed architect son of celebrated American architect, Frank Lloyd Wright.
