Built in 1953-1969, this Organic Modern building was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and Taliesin Associated Architects to serve as the Riverview Terrace Restaurant, an eatery that overlooks the Wisconsin River in Spring Green. The building is heavily integrated into the surrounding landscape, reflecting Wright’s organic design philosophy. The building is clad in rough-hewn stone and stucco, with a gabled roof, a hexagonal tower overlooking the main entrance, a cantilevered canopy on stone piers at the main entrance, exposed roof beams and stone fireplaces inside the building, a cantilevered section of the main floor that stretches between two sections of basement, and long ribbon windows with wide overhanging eaves that overlook the nearby Wisconsin River. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2024. Since 1994, the building has served as the Frank Lloyd Wright Visitor Center, and is the location from which tours of nearby Taliesin and the Hillside Home School complex begin, along with housing a gift shop, offices, and a cafe.

Built in 1956-1957, this Organic Modern building was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright to serve as a public Elementary School for the town of Wyoming, Wisconsin, a rural community located south of Taliesin in Iowa County, which voted to consolidate its one-room schools in 1956. The building features a cement block exterior, a low-pitch hipped roof with wide overhanging eaves, a roughly hexagonal footprint, clerestory windows and large ribbon windows, recessed entrances, a central chimney, and contains two classrooms, a multi-purpose room, a kitchen, a teacher’s lounge, and two restrooms, with a small basement containing a utility room. The building served as an elementary school for the Wyoming community until 1990, when it closed due to declining enrollment. The building sat vacant until 2011, when it was reopened as an arts and community center. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016. Today, the building is the only realized public school designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, and serves as the Wyoming Valley School Cultural Arts Center.
Built in 1900 and expanded in 1908, this Beaux Arts-style flatiron building was designed by Gordon and Paunack to house the Commercial National Bank, and is known as the Wisconsin Building. The building is flatiron-shaped with a curved corner, and features stone cladding on the first floor at the corner and along the State Street facade, with stone cladding featuring fluted doric engaged columns on the first floor, large storefront windows and entrances, a prominent corner entrance with a decorative metal grille above, a cornice at the top of the first floor stone cladding with the words “Commercial Bank” and “Bank” emblazoned on the architrave. Above the first floor and along Carroll Street, the building is clad in red brick with one-over-one windows and decorative brick trim and stone lintels, with curved tripartite windows on the curved corner separated by fluted pilasters, a metal fire escape mounted on the Carroll Street facade, an entrance on Carroll Street surrounded by stone trim with the words “Office Entrance” engraved into the header, and a cornice with dentils at the top of the fourth floor, at the base of the parapet that encloses the building’s low-slope roof. The building is a contributing structure in the State Street Historic District, listed on the Wisconsin State Register of Historic Places.
Built in phases between 1911 and 1959, this Prairie and Organic Modern-style house and office were designed by Frank Lloyd Wright to serve as his family residence and studio, with two fires leading to substantial reconstruction of the house in 1914 and 1925. The house, which is named “Taliesin”, Welsh for “Shining Brow” or “Radiant Brow”, referring to the hill upon which it is situated, is a long and rambling structure with multiple sections built at different times, with the building serving as a living laboratory for Wright’s organic design philosophy, as well as growing with Wright’s family, wealth, and business. The house sits on a hill surrounded by fields, but is notably located below the top of the hill, which Wright saw as being such a significant feature of the landscape that it should remain untouched by the house’s presence. The house’s westernmost wings served as the home of livestock and farm equipment, as well as a garage, later becoming housing for the Taliesin Fellowship, where aspiring architects apprenticed with Frank Lloyd Wright. The central wing served as the Frank Lloyd Wright studio, where Wright and his apprentices and employees worked on projects for clients, as well as where Wright often met with clients. The eastern wing served as the Wright family’s residence, and was rebuilt twice, in 1914 and 1925, after being destroyed by fire, and is overall the newest section of the complex, though some portions of the west and central wings were added after the main phase of construction of the residence was complete.
The house is clad in stucco with a wooden shingle hipped and gabled roof, with stone cladding at the base and on piers that often flank window openings, large casement windows, clerestory windows, outdoor terraces and balconies, stone chimneys, and glass french doors, all of which connect the interior of the building to the surrounding landscape. The interior of the buildings feature vaulted ceilings in common areas, stone floors, stone and plaster walls, decorative woodwork, custom-built furniture, and multiple decorative objects collected by Wright during his life. The exterior of the house has a few areas distinctive from the rest of the structure, with a cantilevered balcony extending off the east facade drawing the eye towards the surrounding landscape from the living room of the residence, next to a large set of glass doors that enclose the living room and adjacent bedroom from a shallower cantilevered terrace, while to the west of the residence, and south of the central wing, is a landscaped garden, which rests just below the crest of the hill.
The building was the full-time home of Wright from 1911 until 1937, when Wright began to spend his winters at Taliesin West in Phoenix, Arizona, due to the effects of the Wisconsin winters on his health. For the rest of Wright’s life, the house was the summer home of Wright and the Taliesin Fellowship, and following his death, the house was deeded to the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation, which operated and maintained the house as a museum and the home of multiple programs until 1990. Since 1990, the house has been under the stewardship of the nonprofit Taliesin Preservation Inc., which operates the house in conjunction with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. The building is a contributing structure in the Taliesin Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973, and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1976. Taliesin was one of eight Frank Lloyd Wright buildings listed as The 20th-Century Architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2019. Today, Taliesin is utilized as a museum, offering tours and interpretation of Frank Lloyd Wright’s life and work.
