Frank Lloyd Wright designed this exceptional house in Ann Arbor at the height of his career. It was finished in the 1950s and owned by the Palmer family until recently. New owners, Kate and Jeffrey Schox, are making it available to rent to visitors looking for a unique vacation destination.

I spent my 50th birthday week in the Palmer House. I felt as though I was living in a museum. How fortunate I was, and so very grateful for the opportunity.

My Frank Lloyd Wright house changed my life built in 1953 As a second owner the previous owner Dr. Goldman and his beautiful wife Angela lived there for 60 years Angela did not want to sell the house to anybody After her husband died She went to live with her daughter in California Many buyers came but she was very picky about who would purchase the home I told her not one tree or plant would be ever touched She was very worried about that After nine years in this home Me and my wife are living A dream every moment like I said it changes your state of mind Very peaceful !

Friends stayed the weekend and graciously invited myself and a friend up for dinner - the house is amazing and wonderful. We sat on the back porch after dinner and 6 deer came into the yard to eat apples that had fallen from the apple tree in the rear of the property - it was an amazing evening ! Your in the middle of Ann Arbor - yet so secluded at this house in the woods that you would swear your in Northern Michigan !

A Masterpiece! One of Wright's finest Usonian homes that was restored recently and beautifully by the late Taliesin Architect Lawrence R. Brink.

Dieses Haus ist eine Reise wert (von Berlin) Es ist so authentisch und einmalig, alles sehr liebevoll erhalten und ein Genuss für FLW Begeisterte. Es ist doch etwas Anderes, in solch einem Haus zu übernachten und nicht nur eine Führung in einem FLW Haus in 2 Stunden zu machen. Hier lebt man mit dem Haus mit und fühlt die Architektur! Und gerade die Dreiecksformen sind hier interessant, man muss sich die Zeit mal vor Augen halten, als er diese entwarf...Danke auch an die sehr freundlichen Vermieter, die den Charme des Hauses erhalten haben und uns viel erzählt haben.

Utterly amazing. Lloyd Wright at his best. Almost the ultimate Usonian!

If I built a FLW style home, I would make the hallways wider and the ceilings higher in them only because I'm tall.

@chrisk8187 5 жыл бұрын

Back then people weren't as large as we've become. FLW was all about "compression" and "release", moving us through one area to another. Also, FLW wasn't very tall himself.

I agree and because of this I would build it differently. :) @@chrisk8187

This house seems to be very pretty but it's quite disfunctional... I love Wright's work but he did a lot of stupid things as well. Did you see the cuts on the beds or the worktop..? The hexagon shape plan is not, by far, the best way to do it and there are some entire triangular spaces also...

@chrisk8187 5 жыл бұрын

Well then, you have a very promising future as a designer of habitable spaces for humans. I'll be looking for examples of your insight and efforts. Best of luck!

And yet he is held to be probably the greatest American architect while the hundreds of thousands of sensible drawers of houses fall into a pile labeled "the rest of the bunch."

@@chrisk8187 I love Wright, I've studied him for years. But he did many stupid things. First he destroyed the box (great), then with his usonian houses he complexed the box (unnecesary). "Sometimes" a bed just need to be a bed and that's it, insted of the bed design of an artist. What about checking Martin Pence project (1940). What do you think about its bedrooms?

@@beegee22 well, not american roots, but the best architect in U.S.A in those times: Louis Kahn. Few works but almost all are true masterpieces..!! (insane). Wright and the best architects of the world and the history did bad designs, stupid things as well because they were human beings. Huge living rooms with tiny "workspaces" to serve it. Very irregular forms in bedrooms, sometimes living rooms, weird furniture acomodates to those corners and some more had Wright's signature. but don't care about it, the best architects had mistakes also.
