A Dazzling Home by Frank Lloyd Wright’s Final Apprentice Lists for the First Time

In the late 1950s, after dropping out of Georgia Tech, Robert Miller Green sent his portfolio on a whim to Taliesin West, Frank Lloyd Wright’s desert retreat and school in Scottsdale, Arizona. His hope was that it would make it to the desk of the renowned architect. Soon thereafter, Green, at the age of 23, received an invite to visit Wright, who was 90 at the time. Though neither of them knew it, Green would become Wright’s final apprentice.

Wright died six months into Green’s fellowship at Taliesin West, prompting Green to move back to his hometown of Atlanta, Georgia. He quickly got to work, starting what would become a 40-year career in architecture.

The former apprentice "established himself as the closest thing to Wright [Atlanta] has produced—in a state with no buildings by the American icon," reads a post by Atlanta magazine. Today, his works can be found in and around the city, with one dwelling having recently hit the market.

Designed in 1974, the residence sits tucked away on a one-acre lot, offering a secluded, private oasis. Natural elements of stone, wood, and glass, unite to help blend the home into its lush setting.
