1. Usonian
Usonian comes from USONA or United States of North America. Usonian homes are sophisticated yet simple. These houses typically feature native materials, flat roofs, large overhangs, natural cooling, natural lighting, heated floors, and car ports. The front of the house is kept private in contrast to the back that opens to the outdoors. These homes were designed without garages, attics, basements, to limit clutter. With the focus on natural light, Wright avoided overhead lighting, preferring lights above and below cabinets and wall shelving units. Many of these features were to retain the natural beauty of the location.
