Showings to start on April 15. The architecture does the work. A 1957 Usonian-lineage home in Richland Center -- mahogany paneling floor to ceiling, a concrete block chimney rising through the heart of the living room, and band windows that open the entire east wall to a panoramic hillside view. Vaulted ceiling with exposed timber beams. A second-floor cantilever pushed out over the slope. Wide overhanging eaves that bring the outside in without asking permission. Herbert Fritz Jr., a Frank Lloyd Wright apprentice designed this house the way his father was taught at Taliesin -- let the site speak, let the materials mean something, let the structure be the ornament. It works. The wood-paneled hallway draws you through like a path through trees. Every room has a window with a reason. Carl Meadows had an appointment at Taliesin --Frank Lloyd Wright turned him away & Fritz Jr. took the project instead. Offered for the first time in a generation, for the buyer who knows what Taliesin means.
