Lewis House, Single-family home in Tallahassee, United States

The Lewis House is a private residential building featuring modern architecture in Tallahassee. The structure uses a distinctive hemicycle design with concentric circles and extensive glazing that opens interior spaces toward the surrounding landscape.

The Lewis family first approached Frank Lloyd Wright in 1948 or 1950; after acquiring a 10-acre site, Wright completed plans in 1952 and the house was built between April and December 1954. The family lived there until 2010, and the Spring House Institute was formed in 1996 to preserve it, beginning fundraising for repairs in 2013. The house was placed for sale in 2025.

The name Spring House comes from the stream and natural spring that once ran through the 10-acre site, though the spring had dried up by the 2000s. The house has been likened to a ship or sailboat, possibly a nod to the Lewis family's appreciation of water. The Spring House Institute, formed in 1996, works to preserve the home.

The house sits at 3117 Okeeheepkee Road, just north of the U.S. Route 27 and Interstate 10 interchange, on a tree-lined hill where it is hidden behind trees. The Spring House Institute, formed in 1996, works to preserve it, and the property was placed for sale in 2025, so access should be confirmed before any visit.

The house is likened to a ship or sailboat because of its curved shape, possibly a nod to the Lewis family's appreciation of water. Its plan was adapted from Wright's earlier Robert Llewellyn Wright House in Maryland, built for one of his sons.
