In the following years he built many variations of this home across the Midwest. Prairie School colleagues such as William Drummond built their own versions as well. The popularity was due, in part, to its efficiency. Taking his cue from the traditional American Foursquare, he maintained a simple square or rectangular plan that was easy to frame and easy to roof. But he added to it his own unique architectural sense that opened the spaces to each other in a way that gives a feeling of free movement. He also provided generous windows to bring natural light into the heart of the home. As a work of art these prints are worth purchasing in their own right. For those of you interested in building a historically inspired house, these plans offer an excellent starting point. In this version of the design Wright adapted his Fireproof Home to a sloping site, incorporating a basement. He kept the usual 4 small bedrooms and 2 baths on the 2nd floor. However this arrangement could easily be adapted. For example the 2 north-west bedrooms and bath could be combine to form a master suite. On the first floor there is also a full bath adjacent to the kitchen. This could be reduced to a powder room and the kitchen correspondingly enlarged. This house would be comfortable in any suburban or country. Excluding terraces, the house has outside dimensions of approximately 33’x54’.
