Frank Lloyd Wright’s Spring House is a unique architectural marvel nestled in Tallahassee, Florida. As the sole private residence designed by the master architect in the entire state, it stands as a testament to his innovative spirit. Its distinctive “pod-shaped” design, a departure from his more familiar Prairie Style, reflects Wright’s exploration of new forms and his ability to adapt to diverse climates.

The house is a harmonious blend of organic architecture and the Florida landscape. Its circular layout and use of natural materials create a sense of intimacy and connection to the surrounding environment. While the Spring House is a private residence, it offers limited tours, providing a rare opportunity to experience firsthand the genius of Frank Lloyd Wright in a subtropical setting.

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!
