Imagine this… For the first time, you can live in a modern home, inspired by one of Frank Lloyd Wright’s original Usonian houses. 

and this… For the first time, the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation has entrusted the use of Wright's original designs to be updated, personalized, and systems-built.

The original designs are archived at Columbia University and exhibited regularly at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. 

and experience this… The Imagine Series. Lindal Cedar Homes is honored to have been selected exclusively to personalize and produce these designs for our clients worldwide, using the time- tested Lindal building system.

In the 1980s, our client couple, purchased a 1200 square foot beach house on San Juan Island in Puget Sound. The house became the nearly weekly retreat for the parents and their two young sons.
