The Lindholm Service Station Circa 2007

He Even Designed Modern Gas Stations This small town service station outside of Duluth may stand as an outlier among Wright’s many commissions, but its unmistakably his, from the copper cantilevered canopy to the glassed-in observation deck. Created with prefab construction and expansion in mind, the station supposedly drew from earlier sketches and ideas Wright had for gas pumps at his proposed Broadacre development. The initial plans even propose hoisting the gas pumps overhead to create a service area free from impediments, a creative but unworkable solution due to building codes. Photo by Eugene D. Becker

The R. W. Lindholm Service Station in Cloquet, Minnesota—the only gas station designed by Frank Lloyd Wright—opened in 1958.

The home's overhanging roof is trimmed with copper, adding a subtle pop of color against its otherwise neutral, brick-clad facade.

"When the current owners bought the property in 1955, they wrote to Wright asking if he had designed any landscaping for the house; Wright responded that he hadn’t but directed them to buy furniture from his new line that matched the home,

Ten-foot-tall, floor-to-ceiling glass doors open the living room to one of the home’s three terraces. The 1953 home still has its original flooring, concrete block walls, and wood trim.

In the living room, 10-foot floor-to-ceiling glass doors open to one of the three terraces. The original red flooring pops against the neutral concrete-block walls and wooden trim.

Each of the three bedrooms provides a spacious and cozy retreat to rest and unwind.

Neighboring the Eppstein House is the Eric and Pat Pratt House, which was built in 1951.

Completed in 1938, Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater is as relevant as ever—and a model of architectural conservancy. We tour the home and spend the night in his nearby Mäntylä to learn what you can’t experience through photos alone.

The SC Johnson Building’s one-half acre Great Workroom in Racine, Wisconsin, is known for its tree-shaped columns, which Wright referred to as "dendriform.
