Lloyd Lewis House; Libertyville, Illinois, United States; 1940. Living Room; Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959); 069715; Vincent Scully Jr., Frank Lloyd Wright (N. Y. :1960), fig. 88; (OVER); "Wright remained, too, more sculpturally aggresive than the Europeans were at that period. His sculpture has the double quality of seeming almost solid and yet being fully expressive of his deeper consideration, the hollow of interior space. The Lloyd Lewis House of 1940 is an excellent embodiment of this expressive union. Its two-storied plan recalls Wright's first Willey project of 1932... Entrance under the raised living room floor of the Lewis House and movement up out of the darkness to the expansive openness of the Living room is again an emotional progress in space and light, as in all of Wright's buildings: from very low to higher, from compression to release, from dark to light."; Vincent Scully Jr. Frank Lloyd Wright (NY:1960), 27/28
