Designed in 1966 by Wright’s student Herb DeLevie, this home in Madison, Wisconsin, includes an unusual converted sunroom.

Located in the capital city of Madison, Wisconsin, The Max and Arlyne Hurwitz House balances Wright-inspired design cues with a few twists. Built in 1966 by Herb DeLevine, a student of Wright’s Taliesin School of Architecture, the midcentury home’s unusual details include a converted sunroom that once housed an indoor pool. See if you can spot it below.

The home's shady corner lot is full of large Maple trees and lush plantings. A deep eave marks the grand entrance, which is further dramatized by 15-foot-tall double doors with Medieval-style hardware from Spain.
