World Heritage: Jacobs House III - a photo on Flickriver

Built: 1937 (and still modern!). Architect: Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959). The building is the first of Wright´s Usonian houses designed for middle income families. Innovative construction techniques are a masonry core, prefabricated sandwich dry walls, heat conduits in a concrete slab floor and elimination of basement. The building was designated a National Historic Landmark in 2003.
Wright was described by the American Institute of Architects as "the greatest American architect of all time".
