Frank Lloyd Wright Trip #1- Walter Rundin House, Madison, WI

insert giant warning here-> I know my fingers are in all of these.. oops!
 
This is the Walter Rudin House, this is actually called a Erdman Prefab House. Marshall Erdman commissioned Wright to design him a house that can be put together in one location & assembled at another. When all was said & done Wright had actually made 2 designs for Mr. Erdman, named Erdman Prefab #1 & Erdman Prefab #2. The Rundin House is actually design #2.

 Research that I've done says that #2 was a square, 2 story home with a 2 story living room. The master bedroom, 1 bathroom, the workspace (aka the kitchen), and utility room were on the ground floor. The second floor had a balcony on two side, 3 bedrooms and a second bathroom.

Because I went in the spring there was not much growing (it gave me a good view of the house), but I guessing the wooded area is beautiful when during the summer.
