Fred Frank house
An architect-designed residence in starkville, Mississippi, reimagined by invited designers, guided by preservation principles.
The Fred Frank House Showhouse is a curated reimagining of an architect-designed residence—bringing together designers, preservationists, and craftspeople to celebrate architecture, place, and thoughtful renewal.

Why Sponsorship Matters
This showhouse is more than a design event: it is a working case study in how historic and architecturally significant properties can be activated through creative collaboration.

*Support research and documentation tied to historic preservation
*Create public programming and tours that connect people to architecture
*Demonstrate the economic potential of design-led preservation projects
Your contribution directly supports the visibility, care, and future of architecturally significant places.
