BACHMAN-WILSON HOUSE

Architect: Frank Lloyd Wright



This structure goes really well with the environment; having a touch of wood in an environment like is quite appealing to the eye. The glass facades definitely enhanced the appearance of the house; there is just something about mixing glass with wood that gives a building a very modern appearance. The balcony makes the building more interesting; it would have been flat without it. I also like the stairs that lead you to the elevation of the building. That procession makes the structure a lot more distinguished.


This home has a touch of class, and elegance to it, the placement of the furniture, and also the fireplace against that white wall is just beautiful.  Also you can see part of the stairs from the living room. I like the way each step is separate and suspended. I really love each detail that adds to the wooden theme of this structure. One can definitely over do the “wood”, but this structure is so well coordinated that the wood adds an earthy feeling to the home. Those tiles are beautiful; it’s a bit darker than the furniture but still lighter than the roof, tying everything together.
