FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT HOME & STUDIO TOUR
Frank Lloyd Wright used his first home to experiment with design concepts that contain the seeds of his architectural philosophy. In his adjacent studio, Wright and his associates developed a new American architecture -- the
Prairie style. Trained interpreters offer insights into Wright's family life and architectural career during this tour.
