12 things about this property that remind me of Frank Lloyd Wright

“A building should appear to grow easily from its site and be shaped to harmonize with its surroundings as if Nature is manifest there.” – Frank Lloyd Wright

18107 Woolman Drive, Minnetonka

  1. Single-story house with low-pitched roof and overhanging eaves
  2. Expanse of windows bringing in expansive nature views
  3. Unassuming facade with few windows
  4. Dramatic rear walkout with abundant windows built into wooded site
  5. Long, narrow porch
  6. In harmony with the environment
  7. Open floor plan
  8. Impressive central fireplace
  9. Natural materials
  10. Red floor (although tile here vs Wright red concrete)
  11. Bedrooms on only one side of hallway so all bedrooms have wooded views
  12. Unassuming entry with low ceiling and hallway transitioning to dramatic spaciousness… here heightened by effect of vaulted ceiling and sunken floor
