Wright on the Market Update: The Walser House is NOT for sale! The Zillow listing circulating widely is not genuine & has been removed from our website. We continue to advocate for the owner, Fannie Mae, to negotiate with interested parties to restore it and bring it back into use. buff.ly/vCCDSvX

Wright on the Market Alert: Having just emerged from the foreclosure process, the Walser House is now listed for sale by owner for $350,000. We continue to advocate that the owner maintain the house until it finds a new steward with the vision and resources to restore it. savewright.org/wom

We did experiment with that idea! Anything that introduced multiple colors or shades to the squares, basically cancelled out the visual impact of the missing square.

Introducing our new logo. Inspired by Wright’s use of the square, it represents both his remaining buildings and the community dedicated to preserving them. The missing square reminds us of the loss when even one is demolished. Learn more about our new visual identity: savewright.org/frank-lloyd-...

The Walser House foreclosure process ended today. It is now bank-owned, removing a major legal obstacle to getting this 1903 Wright design into the hands of a steward who will preserve it. buff.ly/sEfstYA
