Visit the Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio

PRESERVATION IN ACTION:

Guided Interior Tours of the Home and Studio will be suspended from January 23 through February 3, 2012 for Preservation in Action, when necessary preservation projects are carried out at the historic site. Audio tours of the historic neighborhood will continue to be offered, and will begin at the museum shop. Shop hours during this period:  Monday - Friday, 10 am to 2 pm; Saturday - Sunday, 10 am to 5 pm.

The Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio (1889/1898) served as Wright's private residence and workplace from 1889 to 1909—the first 20 years of his career. Wright used his home as an architectural laboratory, experimenting with design concepts that contain the seeds of his architectural philosophy. Here he raised six children with his first wife, Catherine Tobin.

In 1898 Wright added a studio, described by a fellow-architect as a workplace with "inspiration everywhere." In the Studio, Wright and his associates developed a new American architecture, the Prairie style, and designed 125 structures, including such famous buildings as the Robie House, the Larkin Building and Unity Temple. We invite you to visit and experience the restored site as it appeared in 1909, the last year that Wright lived in the Home and worked in the Studio.

Public tours available daily except Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's days. Advance tickets are highly recommended. Purchase tickets here or call 1.800.514.ETIX (3849).
