Return to the Schwartz House

We stayed in the Schwartz House in Two Rivers, Wisconsin with some old friends last weekend. The Schwartz House is a Usonian house, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1940. The inside of the house smells like the cedar that the ceilings are made of. The floors seem to be made out of smooth concrete and are warm to the touch. And you can use the fireplace:



We first stayed at the house back in November of 2005.

You can see more pictures of the place on Flickr.
