The Norman Lykes House, the final home designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, is on the market for $8.95 million.
The sprawling desert home was designed with concentric circles to create a flow between each room.

The Norman Lykes House, also known as the Circle Sun House, was one of just 14 circular homes designed by famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright.

The house was designed to blend in to the natural environment that surrounds it, and includes vast views of downtown Phoenix, similar to Wright's own home and studio, Taliesin West, located in Scottsdale.

The main entryway to the house features the 'compress and release' design concept — where tight entry spaces opened up to a larger, open room — that Frank Lloyd Wright was known for.
