Hanna House is among the 17 Wright buildings named his most important works by the American Institute of Architecture, three of which are in California. The others are the Hollyhock House in Los Angeles and the V.C. Morris Gift Shop in San Francisco. If you want to know more about Wright's Usonian architecture, try this - or read Frank Lloyd Wright's Usonian Houses by Carla Lind. The house was the Hanna family home until 1975 when it was donated to Stanford University. It served as the provost's home until the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake severely damaged it and subsequently closed for almost a decade for a seismic retrofit.
Modifications were made by other architects much later. The Richard Welsted Day Renovation, 2049 Oakstone Way, Los Angeles CA. Original house was built in 1916. Renovated in 1930, 1936, and 1941, according to Wright's archives. Mr. Day was a movie art director who won seven Academy Awards for Best Art Direction.
California Sites by Date
Sold in 2015 to Mary Winterfield. The John Daniel Derby House, 611 North Rexford Drive, Beverly Hills CA. Wright also designed the landscaping. Sold in 2018 to the Jeffrey Whalen Trust.

In 1905 Cudworth Beye, whose family was friends with Wright, requested a design for a boathouse to serve the University of Wisconsin crew team. When S. P. “Pearl” Elam and his wife toured Taliesin in 1948, they told Wright’s chief draftsman, John Howe, that they were interested in building a home.. Wright was commissioned to enlarge and remodel the existing structure. The addition of a two-story bedroom wing to the south, upper- and lower-level porches, three verandahs and large eaves. Frank Lloyd Wright designed the Muirhead Farmhouse for Robert and Elizabeth Muirhead in 1950.
Apartments were built on the site around 1970. The E. R. Lewis House, 2948 Graceland Way, Glendale CA. A later addition marred the original design.
Freeman House (

The house is located on the slope of a hill with a slight incline towards the west, and is articulated around three ancient oaks that were found on the property. Certainly, one of his most famous work in California is Hollyhock House, which was built in Los Angeles in 1917. This Mayan Revival-inspired home is a National Historic Landmark and is open to the public for tours. Another view of the living space within the Hanna House.
N. Schwein, who wanted to build a private airplane landing field on his 35 acre tract. Sold in 2002 to Roger and Madalina Bowman, still owners as of 2022. The Louis and Grace Samuel House, 579 North Bundy Drive, Los Angeles CA. Sold in 2005 to Allison Nisonson and the Irene Weinrot Trust.
Unbuilt, due to spiraling projected costs. Wood then took the Wright design to an architect/designer in Oxnard CA who redid it for construction. Wood had another Modernist home built in the 1970s by architect Paul Sterling Hoag.
