Designer Desk Clock | Usonian | Bulova Frank Lloyd Wright Collection



From the Bulova Frank Lloyd Wright Collection.

Brings to mind back yard parties and evening poker games envisioned in the simple low cost homes designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in the early 1900s. The era of the small gathering. (See Below)

It has a solid wood case, light cherry stain.

Walnut stain base and accent lines.

Protective glass lens.

Based on the "board and batten" walls utilized in the Usonian homes, 1936-1959.

Usonian' is a term usually referring to a group of approximately fifty middle-income family homes designed by Frank Lloyd Wright beginning in 1936 with the Jacobs House.[1] The "Usonian Homes" were typically small, single-story dwellings without a garage or much storage, L-shaped to fit around a garden terrace on odd (and cheap) lots, with native materials, flat roofs and large cantilevered overhangs for passive solar heating and natural cooling, natural lighting with clerestory windows, and radiant-floor heating. A strong visual connection between the interior and exterior spaces is an important characteristic of all Usonian homes. The word carport was coined by Wright to describe an overhang for a vehicle to park under.

Variants of the Jacobs House design are still in existence today and do not look overly dated. The Usonian design is considered among the aesthetic origins of the popular "ranch" tract home popular in the American west of the 1950s.
