Robie House
Wright designed the Robie House in his studio in Oak Park, Illinois. It is renowned as the greatest example of his Prairie style, the first architectural style that was uniquely American. At the time that he commissioned Wright to design his home, Robie was only 28 years old and the assistant manager of the Exclesior Supply Company, a company on the South Side of Chicago owned and managed by his father.
