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

EcoKarat Jewelry's furry baby, Bella, has officially filled "the greeter" position! Since she was two months, she always figured/finds a way to sneak past us to run to the door and show so much love and affection to everyone who stops by! Although she has many toys and a playroom, she enjoys welcoming others and getting a lot of affection. Believe it or not, she also likes to hop on the jeweler's/ jewelry designer's lap, when he is at his bench working and makes sure she shows love to everyone in the family...everyday! #ecokaratjewelry #prouddogparents #oakparkil #downtownoakpark #marionst #furrybabylove #oakparkillinois #oakpark #loveourpuppy #bella #maltesepuppy #ourpuppy #ourpup #puplove #puppyparents#oakparkstagram#visitoakpark #3djewelrydesign #ecojeweler #jewelrydesigner #ecominded #oneofakindjewelry #onsitejeweler #custommadejewelry#3djewelrydesign #personalizedjewelry #jewelryrepairs #watchrepairs #jewelrypassion #quickjewelryrepairs (at EcoKarat Jewelry) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq5w_g2HVkW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1t2x4llh4hxad

An extra bay was added to the former kitchen in order to create what became the Wright's new dining room. The space is noted for its warm and intimate nature. It is centered around an oak table and high back chairs, all Wright-designed, of course. Above the table is a decorative light panel with oak leaves and various geometric patterns that bear the influence of Sullivan. #Chicagoland #OakParkIl #Shinglestyle #VictorianArchitecture #Sullivanesque #ChiArchitecture #Chitecture #FrankLloydWright #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhouseoldandnew #TheAmericanHome #houseportrait #BrickStory #VisitOakPark #EnjoyIllinois #ThisPlaceMatters #WrightSites (at Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSgCtsgLN3x/?utm_medium=tumblr
