Here is the listing: Wright Westhope MansionI didn't see a thread for this. We have toured 3 Wright homes - Fallingwater and 2 Usonian houses. Always interesting to visit but I wouldn't really want to live in them. This is the largest home I've seen of his design. |

That is very unique. I love the design of the front of the house.

My husband’s grandparents had FLW build their home. It’s in Los Banos, CA. We took our engagement photos there.

That is very unique, and I actually love it. I mean, it sort of looks like some kind of mega church from the outside, but I still love it.

It is beautiful. I think of his houses this would be low on the list of which one I would like to pretend own. It is still stunning. He was amazing.

As is the case with most Frank Lloyd Wright homes, I think the house is gorgeous, but not very livable. I can’t even begin to imagine how hot that house gets when the Oklahoma sun beats down in August.
I wish I had the money to fund a foundation to purchase the home and maintain it as a museum.

It looks like a hotel to me. Inside is nice, but a whole lot of white, but if I had that kind of money, then I could have all the maids I wanted to clean all that white. Then the area around the pool reminded me of the mausoleum area at Fort Logan National Cemetery sans the pool. What are those "things" around the pool?

I'm generally all about FLW, but this leaves me cold. It looks like a dated office building. Pass.
(My major was history, with a focus on architecture.)
