I don't know how I feel about the Wright organization's pushback; on one hand this was built in 2025, well after Wright's death abet to original prints(with only non-visible modifications due to code) so I would not be willing to call it a Wright house based on that.
However; if it is true to design, as much as possible(which happens in current builds too), then it is a Wright house.
On the third hand, I think Wright would not agree... I remember hearing stories of him going into houses he built and rearranging the rooms back to how he had set them up. So perhaps they are doing what he would do?
