Date: 2004 Title: Samuel Freeman House Concrete Block, 2004 (1923 - S.216).
Description: The Samuel and Harriet Freeman House is one of the four textile-block houses designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in California. During construction, dirt was mixed in with the concrete to give it a more natural look but the compound proved to be unstable. Wright was out of the country at the time working on the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo. He dispatched his associate, Rudolf Schindler to come up with a solution. Schindler filled the gaps in the textile blocks with mortar as a means to stabilize them, however the changes compromised the design aesthetic and infuriated Wright. Schindler's "transgressions" brought about the end of their relationship. In 1986, the house which the Freemans lived in for 61 years was given to the University of Southern California School of Architecture. The house was badly damaged by the Northridge Earthquake in 1994. The home is under going a major restoration. This block is poured from the original mold for the restoration. Two blocks.

Title: Saving Wright. The Freeman House and The Preservation of Meaning, Materials, and Modernity (Hard Cover DJ) (Published by W. W. Norton &Company, New York, London)
Author: Chusid, Jeffrey M.
Description: "Saving Wright chronicles the ongoing struggle to save Wright’s Freeman House in the Hollywood Hills, the setting for fascinating people and events but deeply flawed from the time it was built ninety-five years ago. The Freeman House was an experiment born out of Frank Lloyd Wright’s polemical vision of a new kind of architecture for the middle class, for modern America, and, in particular, for the Los Angeles foothills. Its design and construction were difficult, thus, along with many poor decisions, planting within a beautiful work of architecture the seeds of its own destruction." (Publisher’s description.)
