Robert M. Lamp House
The Robert M. Lamp House (1903) is a residence at 22 N. Butler Street in Madison, Wisconsin, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright for "Robie" Lamp (1866–1916), a realtor, insurance agent, and Madison City Treasurer.
=="Robie" Lamp==
Lamp resided here with his parents and an aunt until their deaths, and later with his wife and stepson. He selected this location one and a half blocks east of the Capitol Square because of its proximity to his office on Pinckney Street. He sometimes walked to work, but because of a withered leg he used crutches and canes, and he usually drove to work.
Born one year apart, Wright and Lamp shared a June 8 birthday. Following a schoolyard fight in 1879 based in part on ethnic difference, Lamp being of German and Wright of Welsh ancestry, they became boyhood chums, frequently went boating together, and even put out a juvenile newspaper jointly. What one historian has termed their "bromance" endured until Lamp's premature death at age 49.〔John O. Holzhueter, in a talk entitled "Robert Lamp, Frank Lloyd Wright, and Walter Burley Griffin: An Architectural Tangle" at the Sixteenth Annual Meeting of the Walter Burley Griffin Society of America, held at the First Unitarian Society Meeting House in Madison, Wisconsin, on 20 June 2015.〕 Lamp joshingly called Wright "Quaker Oats" because of his distinctive headwear, and Wright called Lamp "Pinky" or "Ruby" because of his red hair, nicknames he would also use for the youngest of his four sons, David Wright.
Five years after leaving Madison for Chicago in 1887, Wright designed for Lamp a lakefront cottage and boat landing called Rocky Roost.〔("Wright Studies: Robert M. Lamp Cottage, Rocky Roost, Lake Mendota, Wisc. (1893) (S.021) Remodel (1901)" ). The Wright Library. Retrieved 16 June 2013.〕 Ten years after that, Lamp asked Wright to design a house for him. A common denominator of the two building projects is their unprepossessing locations, sites developed virtually out of nothing.
