Robie House on the University of Chicago campus is the most famous example of his Prairie School design. Considered an architectural masterpiece, this quintessential Prairie house features horizontal planes, dramatic cantilevers, and long ribbons of art glass windows. Designated by the American Institute of Architects among the Top Ten Buildings of the 20th Century, the Robie House remains a cornerstone of modern functional form.
