Still Bend is based upon the September 1938 LIFE magazine competition entitled “Eight Houses for Modern Living,” in which Wright was among eight architects tapped to design a “dream house” for a typical American family with an annual income of $2,000 to $10,000. Named for the bend in the East Twin River, which flows through the rear of the property, the Usonian house is two stories, with a balcony off the bedroom area that overlooks the large living space. Each of three bedrooms has an outdoor balcony. A carport is cantilevered from the bedroom wing toward the street. The house remains privately owned but is regularly opened for tours and available for overnight rentals.
