Name, date and notes

Frank Llyod Wright Robie House, Chicago, 1910 -very revolutionary for his time as it was in the victorian period where houses were very tall and high and ornate with pitched roofs, but his house changed as he knew automobiles and roads would change housing so he flipped the house (back oriented) -he was about horizontality, the elongation rather than the verticality -Japanese inspiration with the overhanging roofs -the way he interpreted how people used rooms, he opened up space -Japanese influence: the hearth of the home, so he based the footprint of the home around the fireplace which was very innovating for his time -prairie school of design
