Palmer House

Ann Arbor, MI

The Frank Lloyd Wright Palmer House, located in Ann Arbor, Michigan, is a stunning example of Wright’s late-career Usonian design. Built for William and Mary Palmer between 1950 and 1951, the home features distinctive equilateral triangular geometry, making it one of Wright’s most experimental residential designs.

You won’t find right angles in this house, as the geometric plan allows for expansive, flowing interior spaces without them, creating a sense of openness and movement throughout the home.

Primarily built of concrete block, glass, and redwood, the house emphasizes durability and harmony with the surrounding landscape, as found with most of Wright’s designs. The floor-to-ceiling windows and glass doors blur the boundary between indoors and outdoors, flooding the interior with natural light. A broad cantilevered roof provides shade and visual drama, while built-in furniture and custom details reflect Wright’s belief in total design. Overall, the Palmer House stands as a bold, innovative interpretation of Wright’s vision for modern American living.

You’ll feel like you’re spending a night in a living work of art.
