Frank Lloyd Wright's First Ever Prairie-Style Home Features the Coziest Looking "Inglenook"

An exterior shot of a Prairie style home with a large lawn and a drive.

There's not much I can say about the iconic American architect Frank Lloyd Wright that hasn't already been said. As one of the most highly regarded architects of the 20th Century, his designs have had a far-reaching impact, particularly his Prairie homes, the first of which was Winslow House.

Built in Chicago in 1893, it was his first major independent commission and the prototype for many of the Frank Lloyd Wright houses that followed. The wooden interior is a true testament to the genius of the designer, and it features an intriguing architectural element that looks so cozy and inviting: an inglenook. If we're lucky, the design feature could make a return to modern homes sooner than you think. Or, you could cozy up inside the original since the home, which is bursting with history and prestige, is currently on the market. Take a look inside.
