TFA DISTINCTIVE DWELLINGS: THE FRANK HOUSE IN SAPULPA DESIGNED BY BRUCE GOFF  $10 | $7.50 | Event starts at 1:00 PM | Sunday, October 16th, 2022 Tulsa boasts a wide variety of residential architecture from the late 1800s through today. From midcentury modern, craftsman bungalows and colonial revival to contemporary mansions, there is an abundance of interesting homes throughout the city. The goal of TFA’s newest residential-focused program, Distinctive Dwellings, is to give those who love architecture an opportunity to see behind the doors of Tulsa’s most distinctive residences through self-guided exploration. The John Frank House was built in 1955 in Sapulpa, Oklahoma and was designed by architect Bruce Goff. It was designed for John Frank, founder of Frankoma Pottery. The home was specifically designed to showcase the Franks' love for pottery. John and Grace Lee Frank glazed and fired the ceramic tiles located throughout the home.
