A photographic guide to Frank Lloyd
Wright extant structures
S.412.1 – Walter & Mary
Ellen Rudin Residence, 110 Martinette
Trail, Madison, Wisconsin
Photographed on August 28, 2009. The house was built for two university professors
who are since retired – but still living here.
I talked with a tradesman who told me the interior of the house had
never been updated, and everything is exactly as first designed. He was renovating the bathroom, which had red
rubber floor tiles. He was matching the
color exactly, having gone through several vendors before finding the right
color. He told me the bathroom floor did
not have heating pipes under it. Oddly,
he knew the house only as a Marshall Erdman home – he knew Erdman worked with
Wright, but didn’t know Wright had actually designed this prefab.
For the third edition of his guidebook,
Prof. Storrer treats each prefab design as a separate
number, and each completed construction of that design as a sub-number. Thus, this basic design is S.412, while the executed plan for Mr. & Mrs. Rudin is designated as S.412.1.
