Theodore Baird Residence, Frank Lloyd Wright residence in Amherst, United States.
The Theodore Baird Residence features brick walls, cypress wood elements, glass facades, and a flat roof extending over a spacious carport.
Built in 1940 for Amherst College English professor Theodore Baird, this house stands as the only Frank Lloyd Wright design in Massachusetts.
The residence demonstrates Wright's Usonian architectural principles, incorporating natural materials and integrating indoor spaces with the surrounding environment.
