Wright Sites in Alabama

While not as widely known as the organic architecture hotspots of California or Arizona, Alabama offers a hidden gem in the form of the Rosenbaum House in Florence. Designed by the legendary Frank Lloyd Wright in 1939, the Rosenbaum House is a prime example of his Usonian vision – affordable, harmonious dwellings that blend seamlessly with their natural surroundings.

The Rosenbaum House is more than just a beautiful home; it’s a testament to Wright’s belief that architecture should be an organic expression of its environment. Nestled amidst the lush landscape near the Tennessee River, the house invites residents to connect with nature in every aspect of their daily lives. If you’re ever in the area, a visit to the Rosenbaum House is a must for any fan of organic architecture or simply anyone seeking a dose of architectural inspiration amidst the natural beauty of Alabama.

History, music, and art lovers will find themselves enthralled by the additional cultural offerings available near Florence. Explore the rich musical heritage of the region at the W.C. Handy Birthplace, Museum & Library, which honors the “Father of the Blues.” Learn about the area’s Native American inhabitants at the Florence Indian Mound and Museum, featuring artifacts dating back over 10,000 years. For a dose of contemporary art, head to the Tennessee Valley Museum of Art, showcasing a permanent collection and rotating exhibits.

About Me

Yvonne Carpenter-Ross

FLW Enthusiast & Webmaster

Architecture and home design have always fascinated me. As a young girl I enjoyed drawing floor plans, rearranging my parent’s furniture and playing with Lincoln Logs and Legos.  My passion has always been the architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright. Since I have been old enough to drive a car, I have visited Frank Lloyd Wright homes in the Chicagoland area and attended the Wright Plus house walks. Now, as co-owners of Northern Sky Designs, my husband & I are able to combine our website design skills and FLW travels to bring you this website! Enjoy!
