- [1918 - Dining Room](https://kimbixler.com/1918-dining-room/) - GROWING UP IN A FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOUSE, Excerpt: The room was dazzling.

- [Basement Floor Plan](https://kimbixler.com/46-2/) - GROWING UP IN A FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOUSE, Excerpt: Frank Lloyd Wright was only 5-foot 81⁄2-inches tall and designed his buildings around what he called the “human scale.” (Fortunately for our family, the ceiling heights were not an issue.

- [1st-Floor Plan](https://kimbixler.com/1st-floor-plan/) - GROWING UP IN A FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOUSE, Excerpt: Wright felt that a centered entrance was, “just like a punch in the stomach.” Wright concealed the front entrance in an alcove at the base of the protruding vertical stairway over the driveway.
- [2nd-Floor Plan](https://kimbixler.com/2nd-floor-plan/) - GROWING UP IN A FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOUSE, Excerpt: The kitchen and servants quarters were divided by doors and were small, tight spaces.

- [1st-Floor Plan - Overview](https://kimbixler.com/1st-floor-plan-overview/) - GROWING UP IN A FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOUSE, Excerpt: Wright’s residential floor plans were revolutionary.

- [1918 - Foyer](https://kimbixler.com/1918-foyer/) - GROWING UP IN A FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOUSE, Excerpt: Frank Lloyd Wright emphasized the horizontal by painting the vertical sections of the grout a darker color that matched the bricks, but kept the horizontal grout lighter.

- [1918 - Fireplace](https://kimbixler.com/1918-fireplace/) - GROWING UP IN A FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOUSE, Excerpt: Frank Lloyd Wright believed that traditional homes, especially those with multiple chimneys, were an “insult to comfort.” Wright wrote that lots of little chimneys, “bristling up everywhere to hint at Judgment.” He despised the use of decorative mantels, marble and grates on these impractical fireplaces as
- [1908 - Fountain](https://kimbixler.com/1908-fountain/) - GROWING UP IN A FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOUSE, Excerpt: The house sat vacant for a year until June 1, 1919 when J. Oswald Dailey purchased it.

- [Library Table](https://kimbixler.com/library-table/) - GROWING UP IN A FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOUSE, Excerpt: In addition to the dining room tables and a plant stand, a massive original library table sat in our living room.

- [Shower](https://kimbixler.com/shower/) - GROWING UP IN A FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOUSE, Excerpt: The shower in the master bedroom had a large, round showerhead eight inches in diameter, which produced a glorious downpour. Tubing with tiny holes every 2 inches encircled a bather from shoulders to knees. When the shower backed up, we called the local plumber. He scratched
- [Vintage Electric Light](https://kimbixler.com/vintage-electric-light/) - GROWING UP IN A FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOUSE, Excerpt: My father told me that Frank Lloyd Wright built this home fully furnished – you could walk up to the front door, take off your hat, shoes and all of your clothes, walk in the house and everything you need would be inside.
- [Original Green Icebox](https://kimbixler.com/original-green-icebox/) - GROWING UP IN A FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOUSE, Excerpt: The center table was Joan Clark’s first foray into stripping paint, but the icebox proved to be the most daunting.

- [Renovated Icebox](https://kimbixler.com/renovated-icebox/) - GROWING UP IN A FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOUSE, Excerpt: My parents soon discovered that virtually every repair to the Wright house required professionals with additional - and expensive - expertise.

- [Phone & Intercom](https://kimbixler.com/phone-intercom/) - GROWING UP IN A FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOUSE, Excerpt: According to Beulah Boynton, we “had a telephone intercom through the house.

Eventually we would regurgitate all of this to architecture students,
- [Living Room Furniture](https://kimbixler.com/living-room-furniture/) - GROWING UP IN A FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOUSE, Excerpt: Unlike many designers, Wright created different furniture unique to every house. “He didn’t think of furniture, as individual pieces, but as parts of a whole....Meis and Breuer designed one chair and used it forever, in any setting.” Wright’s apprentice from Taliesin, Edgar Tafel wrote. “For every
- [Lantern](https://kimbixler.com/lantern/) - GROWING UP IN A FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOUSE, Excerpt: “Virtually every tour I led after school hours - or on the weekends - began the same way – I stood on the hearth, index cards in hand, all 4 feet 8 inches of me beaming. I was in 3rd grade and “leading a tour,” with
- [Garage & Pond](https://kimbixler.com/garage-pond/) - GROWING UP IN A FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOUSE, Excerpt: Thirty feet beyond the end of the house sat a small building with stained glass windows and a roof matching that of the main house. “Whose house is that?” I said. “It looks like a miniature version of our new one.” “That’s our garage,” my dad

- [Sunroom](https://kimbixler.com/sunroom/) - GROWING UP IN A FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOUSE, Excerpt: Wright wanted windows to open freely and outward, allowing greater access to the outdoors.

- [Office](https://kimbixler.com/154-2/)
- [Glass Cabinet](https://kimbixler.com/leaded-glass-cabinet/) - GROWING UP IN A FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOUSE, Excerpt: All 220 zinc came windows were decorated with patterns unique to the Boynton house.
