For more than 70 years, claims have persisted, without much evidence, that a home in Portland, Oregon, is a lost work by Frank Lloyd Wright. Regardless of authorship, the structure—a flat-roofed, cedar and glass ranch—endures as a sterling example of postwar American architecture. Its recessed entryway features panes of translucent glass.
“The use of the structural insulated panels for the roof allowed us to keep the exposed post-and-beam look, which is a midcentury trademark, while making the house energy-efficient,” Schultz said. Douglas firm beams and soffits support a SIPS roof, which shades Andersen Windows & Doors. The deck, made of red meranti, overlooks a nearby pond.
