Built in the mid 1950s in the organic, Ozark-inspired style for which he’s well known, the home that the late architect E. Fay Jones designed for his own family served them well for decades and continues to be a place of comfort for his wife, Gus. A few years ago, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places, cementing its spot in architectural history. This year, Jones’ place in history was further secured when the University of Arkansas rededicated its architecture program as the Fay Jones School of Architecture.
