The Robie House is one of the greatest achievements of Frank Lloyd Wright's Prairie style of architecture. While other Wright houses incorporate elements of the style, this national historic landmark is the most forceful expression of it. Robie House was the first building in the country to be recognized as a landmark based solely on its architectural merit. Managed by the Frank Lloyd Wright Preservation Trust.
