The Stuart Richardson House is a Usonian-style residence in Glen Ridge, Essex County, New Jersey, United States,. Affectionately named "Scherzo" by its architect Frank Lloyd Wright, it was designed in 1941 and built in 1951 for actuary Stuart Richardson and his wife Elisabeth. The Richardsons, with their two daughters Margot and Edith, moved in on October 23, 1951, and owned the house until 1970. The primary building construction materials employed in the design of the house were red brick, old growth tidewater cypress wood, and glass on a Cherokee-red radiant heated concrete floor mat. The building spans 1,800 square feet (170 m2).
