The Alvin Miller House is a Usonian home beside the Cedar River in Charles City, Iowa. It was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and constructed over a five-year period completed in 1951. The single-story structure features a two-level flat roof which allows for clerestory windows. It was severely damaged in the flood of 2008, but is currently being restored.〔http://globegazette.com/news/wright-designed-home-to-be-restored/article_93223486-d389-11e0-99ef-001cc4c002e0.html〕 According to the National Park Service document on the seven Iowa Usonian homes: ″The third Iowa Usonian, the Alvin Miller House in Charles City, was designed in the same year as the Grant House but was not built until 1951-1952. The Miller House was featured in Wright's ′The Natural House;′ it is the smallest of the Iowa Usonians; and, unlike the Walter and Grant houses, the Miller House has a much sturdier, less radical character.″〔http://focus.nps.gov/pdfhost/docs/NRHP/Text/64500164.pdf〕 ==Gallery== File:2012-0610-AlvinMillerHouse.jpg File:AlvinMiller2.jpg File:AlvinMiller3.jpg File:AlvinMiller4.jpg 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alvin Miller House」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
