Jorgine Boomer Residence - "The
Natural House"
(1954) |
About the time that Jorgine
Boomer opted for a smaller residence instead of rebuilding
the Pauson residence, George Clark decided against building
his cottage on the Carmel coast. Not to let a good design go
to waste, Wright erased Clark's name and replaced it with
"Desert Cottage for Jorgine Boomer." He presented the plans to Boomer, and she
agreed. He rotated the home 180 degrees, facing
Northeast away from the sun's heat, with sweeping views of
the Piestewa (Squaw) Peak (yes, it was visible from the
property at the time the home was built).
Frank Lloyd Wright wrote, "The Usonian
house, then, aims to be a natural performance, one that is
integral to site; integral to environment; integral to the
life of the inhabitants. A house integral with the nature of
materials - wherein glass is used as glass, stone as stone,
wood as wood - and all the elements of environment go into
and throughout the house."
The Natural House,
Wright, 1954, p. 134. |
|
As late as 1952, Boomer was moving toward
the reconstruction of the Pauson Residence. It wasn't until
1953 that the decision was made to modify and build the
Clark design. Taking into consideration time for modifying
the Clark plans, completing the Boomer working drawings, and
the construction of the home, it was finished in time to
include photographs in "The Natural House." Wright
does not comment on the Boomer home, but merely adds the
photographs near the end of the book, along with the floor
plans, pages 208-212. The photographer is not credited (page
223).
According to Wright, (NH),
the 1,413 square foot home cost $24,000 to build in 1953-4.
These six photographs were taken in 1954,
after the completion of the home, and before the publication
of "The Natural House."

Circa 1956. Set of four
photographs.
Image 1: A rare color photograph showing the natural
colors of wood and stone used in the
Boomer residence. The row of plantings on the left were
approximately 1-2 feet in the 1954 image number 4, published
in "The Natural House". They are now approximately 3 feet
tall, and in full bloom. The larger tree on the left, has also gained 2-3
feet which appears on the far right in the 1954 image. This
image also shows the original second floor, before the
expansion of the south end. The walls are constructed of natural red
desert stone set in concrete. First floor: The walled Lanai
is on the far left, the Dining Room and
Work Space in the center. Perforated light screens add a

Jorgine Boomer Residence 1963,
viewed from the East. Nine years after the home was
completed, the existing foliage has grown, but still remains
sparse like the original 1954 images. The upper Sitting Room curtains have
been replaced. The Arizona Biltmore can be seen in the
background on the right. The south end of the upper level
has been greatly expanded. The walls are constructed of
natural red desert stone set in concrete. First floor: The
Entrance and Chauffeur's quarter are below the wide
cantilevered overhanging eve on the left, the Sitting Room
is to the right, and the walled Lanai on the far right.
Upper floor: The Servant's Room is on the left, stairway is

The concrete masonry core houses the bathrooms and fireplaces on
the first and second |
|
floors, and mimics the same angle of the large dramatic roof that
reaches skyward.
After living in the home for just a few
years, Boomer donated it to the Phoenix Art Museum. Unable
to utilize and maintain the property, the museum sold it to
Lucile Kinter (1910-2008). According to the Lucile's nephew,
the present owner of the home, beginning in 1958, Boomer
donated the home to the museum over a three year period
(1958, 1959 and 1960). Lucile purchased the home in 1961 and
lived in there until her death,
when it was passed on to the family.

Jorgine Boomer Residence Circa
1973-5. This set of six photographs were photographed by
Yukio Futagawa. Five of the six were
published in the 1976, "Global
Interiors #10", p.148-51. 26 homes were photographed for
this volume. That would date these photographs prior to
1976. The automobile parked in the driveway on the left (in
image #1) is a 1959 Buick Electra. Looking at the landscaping, the foliage
could easily be 20 years old, when comparing it to the
landscaping from 1953 and 1963. Image #2 was published in "Frank
Lloyd Wright Monograph 1951-1959" Volume 8, 1988. The upper sitting room curtains have
been replaced again, following the original 1953 format, but
the interior photographs were shot at an earlier date, when
the curtains |
|
hung from a horizontal bar. The
south end of the upper level
has been greatly expanded. The wall forming the
bedroom on the lower level has been removed, enlarging the
living room. The walls are constructed

Jorgine Boomer Residence Exterior (2004) |
|
On a trip to
Scottsdale during the
spring of 2004, we had the opportunity to drive past the
Boomer residence and take a few photographs. After 50 years,
the home appeared to be engulfed by desert foliage which was
in full bloom.
The home is dominated by the large roof
that begins in the rear of the home about three to four feet off the
ground, and rises to the front, overshadowing the two story home
in front, then cantilevers out over the balcony and lanai.
The home is anchored to the desert with
walls that are constructed of natural red desert stone set
in concrete, in the nature of Taliesin West, which Frank
Lloyd Wright began in 1937. The two story home is just over 1,400
square feet. The lower |
|
level
includes the Living Room, Kitchen and Dining area, Bath and
what was designed as the Chauffeur's quarter. A bedroom wall
was removed, enlarging the Living Room. The upper level
includes a large Bedroom, Bath and what was designed as the
Maid's Bedroom.
After living in the home for just a few
years, Boomer donated it to the Phoenix Art Museum which
sold it to Lucile Clarina Medcraft Kinter. She was
born on March 31, 1910 and passed away on November
16, 2008 at the age of 98. She was married to Charles V. Kinter.
In 2004, she would have been 94 years old, which might
explain the state of the landscape. Photographed by Douglas M.
Steiner, April, 2004. |

the corner windows in the front of the house, this window

Jorgine Boomer Residence Exterior
(2014) |
|
My how time
flies. It had been ten years since we last visited
Scottsdale. This trip had three purposes. The first was to
visit our youngest son and his wife, who now lived in the
Phoenix area. The second was to visit Taliesin West and
personally meet and thank those that had assisted us in
publishing "Frank Lloyd Wright's
Nakoma Clubhouse & Sculptures." The third was a
desire to study and document Frank Lloyd Wright's work. in a
more in-depth way then just the cursory drive by, clicking a
few quick pictures (like in 2004).
We had that opportunity at
the Boomer Residence. The nephew of the second and longest
owner of the home, was very gracious and allowed us not only to
closely view the exterior, but also the interior.
As we approached the home from the east,
the first thing that became apparent was the extreme
measures that had been taken to reduce the desert growth
which had engulfed the property and the home ten years
earlier. Fifty years of growth |
|
had created a dense
forest.
The most stunning view of the exterior of
the home is from the Northwest (#11),
which exemplifies much of Wright's designs. The home is
anchored to the desert with walls that are constructed of
natural red desert stone set in concrete, in the nature of
Taliesin West. The concrete walls of the Sitting Room and
Work Space slant inward, while the Balcony walls slant
outward. Perforated light screens top the walls of the
Dining and Work Space, adding a measure of privacy. The home
is dominated by the large roof that begins in the rear of
the home, a few feet off the ground and rises, enhancing the
two story home in front, then cantilevers out over the
cantilevered balcony. There are three mitered glass corners
on the upper level, two on the lower. Floor to ceiling
windows and doors on the first and second level enhances the
natural light.
