Frank Lloyd Wright kept odd hours often working in the middle of the night and catching a cat nap during the day. He had a code so that his architectural students knew when they could approach him. If they spied him sleeping on the bed nearest his desk, they could approach and ask him a question.
If they looked in the window and spied him sleeping on the other bed. Eye y eye, they knew they had better stay out. 
I found it difficult to spy the bed with all the reflections. 
His wife’s open room allowed students to spy on her easily.
I hope you enjoyed spying on the very private life of America’s most famous and controversial architect and his fourth wife.

What an interesting post, Marsha. I’m with Sylvia here – I don’t think I would like to be spied on while I’m sleeping (and snoring) 😉

I agree. I did take a picture one of my sweet older lady friends who fell asleep in my recliner when she stayed with us. It was just too cute, but it didn’t go anywhere. I wouldn’t do that today because it would be too tempting to post! 🙂 I would hate for someone to post a picture of me sleeping!!! 🙂 Not a pretty picture. Even just getting up Vince told me I’m sitting her drinking my coffee with flat hair. (the sin of it!)

He sounds like a very unusual man.

Nor would I, but he created the code and made his own bed. I guess he had to sleep with it. 🙂

I visited one of the homes he designed in the Phoenix area about 20 years ago.The allure of his eclectic style eluded me. I’ll take a good old-fashioned symmetrical structure any day. (And I really wouldn’t want to have people watching me or my wife while we sleep.)

I’m not that open either. Besides, I know my husband snores, and I’m sure I do too! 🙂
