Anyone have any starts on the "room with no name" clue? Brilliantly obscure riddle!

My only guess is that it's somewhere in DC...

I've had little luck, myself... I'm trying to figure out the pictures on the wall, hoping that'll give me a clue; I've figured out 2 of them, possibly three, but can't seem to relate them all together...

I think I know what the seal on the wall is, but it hasn't helped me!

Assuming that this coin is in SF since 3 of the 6 are in chicago, there is a man name William Wurster that was an architect that created a concept called "the room with no name" which is a big open room. Not sure if that's what the clue is refering to, but it's the only thing I could find.

"The Marion Hollins residence of 1931 contains the "kitchen cave," which is perhaps his first inside-outside dining room space and the forerunner of what later becomes Wurster's "room with no name.""

I'm pretty sure I know exactly where the Isis is, I simply and unfortunately live 3000 miles away from it.

Yeah.. I am also guessing that it has something to do with Wurster.. Probably a house that he was the architect for, but there are sooo many.. It also seems like it's more of a "home-office" type room, like for a mayor or something.
