Some visitors say that Frank Lloyd Wright's Zimmerman house resembles a trailer. The living spaces are long and narrow. In the galley kitchen, a sink, a top-loading dishwasher, a stove, and a refrigerator form an orderly, compact arrangement along one wall. Cooking utensils hang from hooks over the work area. Sunlight filters from high clerestory windows. Space is used efficiently, but will accommodate no more than one cook.
