- Summary:
- "In 1938 Life magazine invited notable architects to design "dream homes" for four American families, each at a different income level. Each family was assigned two architects, one to design a "traditional" house and one a "modern" house. Wisconsin architect Frank Lloyd Wright prepared a modern design for a family in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Wright described the home, with its special privacies and conveniences, as "a Little Private Club.""--Wisconsin Historical Society.
