Robei House, Chicago (1909)
Frank Lloyd Wright
All the characteristics of the early Prairie houses were here: strong horizontal planes and masses, open interiors, bold cantilevers, and a strong attachment to the earth. Visually, this brick structure was a series of exciting planes, suggestive of a ship at sea. In its urban setting, it became one of the most celebrated residences in modern architecture.
