“Just about 20 miles south of Frank Lloyds Wright’s Taliesin, an obelisk will rise from rolling Wisconsin farmland. Designed for an urban Chicago family, it will provide four-season immersion in nature, “It’s a nice piece of land—about 120 acres, filled with ravines, sandstone rock croppings, and 300-year-old oak trees. The house is just for enjoying that land. This whole thing is an icon or a monument to that,” says architect Brad Lynch, who’s designed multiple projects for the same clients.”
