Title: Robert Levin House, Kalamazoo, Michigan, Circa 1959 (1948 - S.298).
Description: Designed in 1948 by Frank Lloyd Wright, this was the first of four houses to be built in Parkwyn Village. The Levin House was constructed of sand-colored concrete blocks on a dark tan concrete slab. All four utilized cast concrete block construction. Three other homes were constructed: McCartney (1949 - S.299); Eric Brown (1949 - S. 300); and Winn (1950 - S.301). Wright also designed three additional homes that were never constructed: Margolis (FLLW#4714 - 1948); Greiner (FLLW#5007 - 1948) and Strong (FLLW#5120 - 1950) all three designed in cast concrete block construction. The Terrace is screened on the left. The Living Room is in the center, the Living Room Fireplace is on the right. Note: Andrews miss-identified this as the Brown Residence, it is the Levin Residence.

S#: 1377.110.0420MEYER MAY RESIDENCE (1908 - S.148) Date: 1908
Title: Frank Lloyd Wright Wall Sconces. Pair, Circa 1908.
Description: Two original wall sconces used in a number of Frank Lloyd Wright's prairie house commissions. We have identified nine Wright designed homes and buildings, to date, where these fixtures are used. Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio (1889-1911), Westcott (1904), Robie (1906), Coonley Residence (1907) and Coach House (1911), Meyer May (1908), Isabel Roberts (1908), Hotel Geneva (1911), Oscar Balch (1911).
Not only did Frank Lloyd Wright design houses and building, but the furnishings and lighting. Lighting styles included the chandelier, the single- and double-pedestal table lamps and wall sconces.
Sconces are manufactured in brass and mahogany. The brass base is square: 3.906" x 3.906" x 0.59". Brass pins in the center of each side holds the wood in place. Four brass screws hold the pedestal in place. The socket assembly and screws also appear to be brass. Stamped on the exterior of the socket assembly: "Perkins. Pat. June 13-99. 3 A. 250 V." A round "nut" with a threaded tube is embedded in the wood base. The socket is screwed to the threaded tube and secured by a small headless screw. Although the socket is clearly manufactured by Perkins, the sconce itself has no manufacturing marks. Some of these sconces had pull cords to turn the light off and on, this set did not. Providence Toomey & Co.
Size: The wood base within the brass is square: 3.75" x 3.75" x .5". The brass pedestal is a sleeve that slides over the electrical socket. The square base of the pedestal is 3.4375' x 3.4375". The neck of the pedestal is square and is 1.75" x 1.75" x 2.28". The top of the pedestal is 2.125" x 2.125" x 31". Overall height: 3.25".

Title: Frank Lloyd Wright: Meyer May House (Soft Cover) (Published by Steelcase, Inc.)
Author: Wright, Frank Lloyd; Scully, Vincent
Description: "It is curious how soon one grows used to it all. After awhile the May House begins to seem quite a normal way of doing things. It seduces, changes, and soothes us, precisely as it was intended tp do. It seems deeply natural, but is, in fact, not normal at all, not simple. It has many sources and condenses many influences; its new unity is special, different from everything else to the very limit of credibility. Our first impression is our truest; it is overwhelming, a consummate work of art, powerful and complete, far beyond anything we have a right to expect in a small house. It brings our common experience as human beings home to us in especially poignant ways. It puts us in our place, fixing us in its golden, timeless glow." Vincent Scully. (First Edition)

Description: Exterior. Article taped to verso: "...It has been 25 years now. A quarter of a century since Smith, an English teacher now retired, finished building it. A quarter of a century after Smith, a would-be architect, suggested a design change that Wright -- acknowledged as one of the great architects -- accepted and praised. A quarter of a century of utter fascination with the house and the man who designed it. It's rare for a man to possess one great possession, said Smith, but my most precious possession is my home.' From the road, the house shows little more than cypress wood, brick, and a succession of tiny off-shaped windows. But on the other side of the house, the side a passer-by can't see, complex geometries of glass sheets project in and out of that brick and cyprus framework. It seems like a natural outcropping,' said Smith, staring at the building. Like a rock, or a bush or a tree." Wright believed that architecture should complement and blend with he land which surrounds it. So when Smith shows off his house, like any good advocate of Wright's 'organic architecture,' he begins with a tour of the three acres of grounds. 'This was all a swamp meadow before we dredged it up,' he says... No other homes are visible from the rear of the house. Smith prefers it that way.

House tours are popular in the Detroit area. ...another house on the tour, the home of Melvyn Smith. They built it themselves from plans prepared by Frank Lloyd Wright. It is a doll house, nestled behind junipers and mostly surrounded by lakes and ponds, one of the best examples of Mr. Wright's feelings that a home should be scarcely distinguishable from the landscape surrounding it. The Smith house was put together with such loving care that its timbers are affixed with screws instead of nails. For years there was not a nail in the place, but one of the Smith children finally drove one in to hang something up, causing some trauma in the family. Tall people are advised to remove hats. The late Mr. Wright designed the place to the height of his client, who is five feet six."
