Prairie Houses and Floor Plans – Non-Imposing Architecture
Did you know that the first Prairie houses and floor plans were designed by Frank Lloyd Wright as a contrast to Victorian homes? His concept of open interior spaces and low horizontal lines revolutionized home building in the early 1900’s. The non-imposing architecture of Prairie homes is still popular among home buyers a century later.
Features of Prairie Style Homes
Prairie style homes can be identified by a low roof pitch and wide overhangs with detailing that emphasizes a horizontal appearance. Windows, framed with substantial trim boards, are usually ganged together. Massive, brick clad veranda columns solidify the horizontal appearance of Prairie houses.
