The Bott House - Kansas City, Missouri
Designed by Frank Lloyd Wright

Frank Lloyd Wright (born Frank Lincoln Wright, June 8, 1867 – April 9, 1959) was an American
 architect, interior designer, writer and educator, who designed more than 1,000 structures and
completed 500 works. Wright believed in designing structures which were in harmony with
humanity and its environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture.

Frank Lloyd Wright designed two houses and one other structure in the Kansas City area.
The first residence is the [Dr. Clarence] Sondern house in the Valentine district, and the second
  is the Frank Bott residence in Kansas City, North. The other structure is the Community Christian
 Church at 46th and Main Streets, although his designs were altered in its construction.
