E. Fay and Gus Jones House

The E. Fay and Gus Jones House is a historic house at 1330 North Hillcrest in Fayetteville, Arkansas. It is a two-story structure, fieldstone on the first level and sheathed in redwood board-and-batten siding on the second, with a broad gabled roof. The house was designed by the architect E. Fay Jones as his family residence, and was completed in 1956. It was the first Jones design to be built, and demonstrated the principles of organic architecture that Jones would espouse through his career. Jones' mentor Frank Lloyd Wright spoke approvingly of the house after visiting it in 1958.[2]
