By Edmund V. Gillon, Jr.
Designed in 1908 as a suburban residence for a Chicago businessman, the Robie House embodied the full spirit of Frank Lloyd Wright's pioneering "prairie school" of design. Long, low, and streamlined, the Robie House profoundly influenced the course of American architecture. Now, model builders as well as lovers of fine architecture can construct an accurate three-dimensional model of the Robie House and discover for themselves the harmonious interrelationships of parts and details that make this home a world-famous architectural masterpiece. The two-foot model is printed in full color on sturdy card stock, and the book includes easy-to-follow directions.
