The Fountainhead residence, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1948 and now for sale in Jackson, Mississippi, showcases unique Usonian architecture. Priced at €2.13 million ($2.5 million), this three-bedroom house stands out as the only Frank Lloyd Wright property in the state. Its diamond shape reflects careful design principles focusing on harmony with the landscape, and the use of materials like Tidewater Red Cypress enhances its aesthetic. Built in 1951, the home's distinctive features show Wright's architectural philosophy enduring late into his life despite evolving architectural trends.
The design remains true to Frank Lloyd Wright's architectural principles, showcasing a unique diamond shape that integrates seamlessly with the natural landscape.
Fountainhead stands as a testament to Wright's continued dedication to architecture, even at the age of 81, embodying his lifelong commitment to organic design.
Constructed without traditional stud walls, the exposed materials and Tidewater Red Cypress wood create a warm and inviting interior feel.
The property's strategic design reflects Wright's idea that architecture should harmonize with its surroundings, making it a perfect example of Usonian architecture.
