About
Samara is a Usonian-style historic house museum in West Lafayette, Indiana, United States. Designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, Samara was completed in 1956 for Purdue University professor John E. Christian and his family. The single-story house spans about 2,200 square feet (200 m2) and uses materials such as brick, concrete, and glass. Its nickname comes from the samara, a type of winged seed that is depicted throughout the house's decorations. The house has been praised over the years for its Usonian-style decorations and is designated as a National Historic Landmark.
