Samara House

The Samara House is one of the few fully complete Frank Lloyd Wright houses. The house was built from 1954 to 1956 and is located in West Lafayette, Indiana. It has been solely owned by Dr. Christian and his wife.

The fireplace's design makes it seem as if its floating in space. The carpenters did not believe the design was possible, but Wright proved them wrong. To the right is the hidden television. When the Christian's received their house plans, they did not own a TV. However, Wright's ability to see how the TV would change culture said the Christians would eventually own three. The problem was the TV does not fit the architecture of the house, so it is placed in the nearby cabinet so it can be hidden when not in use.
