Lewis House, Private residence on Okeeheepkee Road, 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 residence was designed in 1954 for George Lewis II and remains the only private home Wright created in Florida. A natural spring on the property influenced its layout and earned it the secondary name Spring House.
The home demonstrates mid-century modern design principles through open-plan spaces that blur boundaries between indoors and outdoors. Visitors can observe how this architectural approach shapes daily living and connects inhabitants to the natural surroundings.
The home is privately owned and visitable only by advance arrangement through organized tours limited to small groups. Contact the Spring House Institute to schedule a tour and confirm current availability.
The building appears on the National Register of Historic Places and was once listed among America's Most Endangered Historic Properties. Its preservation status reflects ongoing efforts to maintain this architectural landmark for future generations.
