The multi-structure estate (1903-05) that Frank Lloyd Wright designed for Darwin D. Martin is a masterpiece of 20th century architecture. The Martin House is widely considered one of Wright’s finest Prairie Houses — a signature work from the early years of his celebrated career. Wright himself referred to the Martin House complex as «the opus» and kept the site plan pinned to his drawing table for close to fifty years.
Today the Martin House Restoration Corporation is bringing the Martin House complex back to its former magnificence in the most ambitious restoration of a Frank Lloyd Wright site ever undertaken.
History
Established in 1992.
The Barton House (1903) was built for Darwin Martin’s sister Delta and her husband George. The Martin House is a 15,000 sq. ft. house for Darwin, Isabelle and their two children Dorothy R. and Darwin R. Martin. A Gardener’s Cottage was added in 1909. Three other structures also designed by Frank Lloyd Wright can be seen at the historic site: a pergola, glass-roofed conservatory and carriage house.
The Martin House Restoration Corporation was formed in 1992 to restore the property to Wright’s original vision as of 1907.
