Entryway of house. The living room is straight ahead (note the workspace to the left--I'll post about that next).



Staircase leading to the second story (located on the left of the entryway). The ceiling is very low (as in, only someone as short as me can go up/down without hitting their head).


Top of the staircase. The loom area was designed by FLW for Mrs. Gordon.



Upstairs hallway (loom area is behind the fan)
Upstairs bathroom--all pink tile



Upstairs bedroom...the full length glass doors that open in such a way that the corner is completely open (shown in bottom image).

The Balcony- during investigation


















External views of the balcony and the gap (caulked) between it and the house.



































































Internal view of the gap (caulk still in place) from the upstairs office (current use of the former bedroom).

Frank Lloyd Wright- Usonian House- Silverton, Oregon

The Gordon House is the only Frank Lloyd Wirght designed house in Oregon. I spent a week studying and working on the house with the Pacific Northwest Field School. It was an amazing experience--I will post photos of some of our work.
