Ode to Frank Lloyd Wright


I've had the sincere pleasure of sitting in on a Frank Lloyd Wright Restoration Development Seminar today and wanted to share his love for the Real Estate he put his blood & soul into. 

I've had the opportunity to go to his actual home in Oak Park a few years ago at my own leisure, but the meeting today was in Hyde Park,IL at the Frederick C. Robie House. It is a very beautifully, architectured home with its Renaissance Era Stained glass windows, high vaulted ceilings, carefully crafted wooden banisters, & splintered mahogany flooring. I enjoyed the free tour and the restoration meeting, the plans made for this building are awesome. I can't wait to see the end results!

Here are a few photos from the Robie House built in 1910:
