In the mid-1930’s, Frank Lloyd Wright began designing more modest homes for the common man. He called this design of home Usonian after one of the proposed names for the United States of America. These homes were to be simple, functional homes that met the needs of small families and could be built for about $5000. www.peterbeers.net/interests/flw_rt/Virginia/pope_leighey...‹›
