The Herbert F. Johnson House

Wingspread, one of the most beautiful Frank Lloyd Wright buildings, is a historic house in Wind Point, Wisconsin, also known as the Herbert F. Johnson House. It was erected in 1938-39 following Frank Lloyd Wright's design for Herbert Fisk Johnson Jr., then president of S.C. Johnson. Wingspread is located near the center of the Wind Point peninsula, which is a triangle protrusion into Lake Michigan north of Racine. The roughly 12 acres (4.9 ha) of landscaped grounds are an essential component of the architectural experience, with a landscaping plan designed by Wright in the style of a prairie setting. A long winding drive leads up to the home from the north. It is made out of a central hub that resembles a domed structure, with clerestory windows on the sides and a viewing platform at the top.

The mansion, at 14,000 square feet, is one of Wright's largest. It was also one of Wright's most expensive home projects and the last of his Prairie School-inspired designs. The Johnson Foundation now operates a conference center on the land. In 1989, the Herbert F. Johnson House was recognized as a National Historic Landmark.
