In 1889, Frank Lloyd Wright, then a 22-year-old draftsman, secured a $5,000 loan from his boss, the great Louis Sullivan, to build a home for himself and new wife, Catherine Tobin. The loan was to be repaid via deductions from Wright's pay. The location of the home, Oak Park, at the time, was a sleepy village that served as a retreat from the bustling city of Chicago. It was originally settled by familes relocating from the East in the 1830s. In the latter decades of the 19th century, elaborate homes typifying of the era were constructed. Wright's home, built in the shingle style, was a departure from everything else around. The shingle style was the preferred choice of many wealthy East Coast families building summer residences in places like Newport, Rhode Island. Some of the notable architects that worked in the style are McKim, Mead & White, Wilson Eyre, Jr., Bruce Price, H. H. Richardson and Wright's previous employer, Joseph Lyman Silsbee. In 1895, with his immediate family expanded, Wright made several changes to his modest home, including the conversion of the original kitchen into a new, enlarged dining room, seperate bedrooms for his children in what was his former studio, conversion of the upstairs nursery into a dayroom for Catherine and the addition of a new kitchen and awe-inspiring, barrel-vaulted children's playroom above it. In 1898, in an attempt to maintain a more balanced professional and personal life, Wright decided to build a new studio that was adjacent to his home, facing Chicago Avenue and connected by a passageway. The Home & Studio is where Frank Lloyd Wright's ideals of what American architecture should be took shape. #Chicagoland #OakParkIl #ShingleStyle #VictorianArchitecture #ChiArchitecture #Chitecture #FrankLloydWright #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhouseoldandnew #TheAmericanHome #houseportrait #BrickStory #VisitOakPark #EnjoyIllinois #ThisPlaceMatters #NationalHistoricLandmark #WrightSites (at Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio) https://www.instagram.com/p/CP9pZcODMPY/?utm_medium=tumblr

One of my favorite buildings I visited during @chiarchitecture’s Open House Chicago was @thewrigleybuilding. I used to work in the building but never had access to the top floors and outside terrace like I did yesterday. Took this pic on my phone but will share those other pics once I dig into my camera pics. . . . #chicago #chitecture #chiarchitecture #likechicago #igerschicago #chi_shooters #us_loverss #urbanmatter #themagmile #usaprimeshot #ig_unitedstates #ig_northamerica #ig_captured #city_features #city_captures #mcl_cityscapes #thehub_skyline #chicagocityworld #agameoftones #citykillerz #all2epic #fatalframes #buildings_illife #liveviachicago #followingchicago #chicity_shots #ohc2019 (at The Wrigley Building) https://www.instagram.com/p/B316A06nfur/?igshid=18y907cdyxqr4
