True Tales From Old Houses

161: Help! We Can't Stop Talking About Frank Lloyd Wright


Listen Later

Will Stacy and Daniel ever stop talking about Frank Lloyd Wright? Yes, but not this week!

In this episode, Stacy and Daniel catch up after the Window Preservation Alliance conference and wade into the world of Usonian architecture through the story of the Gordon House—a modest, DIY-friendly home designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. Stacy recently visited the Gordon House in Silverton, Oregon, which sparked the conversation about Usonian design. The episode also takes a detour into Daniel's yard sale prep and the Goodwill treasures they found while thrifting in Scottsdale.

From radiant floors to hidden front doors, this episode is definitely the last time they talk about Frank Lloyd Wright (unless it isn't).
