Description:
Frank Lloyd Wright's Allen House, located in Wichita, Kansas, is a prime example of his Prairie School architectural style. Built in 1917 for newspaper publisher Henry J. Allen and his wife Elsie, the house features low horizontal lines, a flat roof, and wide overhanging eaves, all designed to blend seamlessly with the Midwestern landscape. Wright used natural materials like brick and wood to create a warm, organic feel inside the home. The Allen House is particularly noted for its integration of indoor and outdoor spaces, with large windows and a central courtyard, reflecting Wright’s philosophy of harmonious living with nature.
