Hello, Tuesday! Chelsea here.

When I picture my “dream home,” it’s not just any house. It’s a midcentury modern masterpiece, with massive windows that bring the outdoors in and overlook a lush, green space. I’m not entirely sure when I first became captivated by Frank Lloyd Wright’s distinct style of design, but it’s been an ongoing love affair ever since. There’s something so unique about the way his homes blend with nature, creating harmony between architecture and the environment. Over the years, I’ve been lucky enough to visit several of his iconic homes, and every single one has been worth the trip. If you’ve never had the chance to step inside one of his architectural wonders, now’s your chance to do just that!
