Located in Oskaloosa, Iowa, the Alice and Jack Lamberson House is a Frank Lloyd Wright–designed Usonian residence completed in 1951. One of seven Usonian homes by Wright built in Iowa and one of two in Oskaloosa, the house is distinguished by its extensive use of 60° and 120° angles, a geometric approach that sets it apart from its counterparts. Despite its deceptively spacious appearance created by a low, sweeping pitched roof, it ranks as the second smallest of Iowa's Usonians. The residence was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.
