Most people are surprised to learn New Hampshire boasts a genuine Frank Lloyd Wright–designed house. The Zimmerman was built in 1950 for a local doctor, and is now owned by the Currier Museum of Art. It perfectly expresses Wright’s design principles, specifically in the diminutive entrance that opens to a dramatic main room, and in the easy blend of indoor and outdoor space. Tours leave from the Currier.
