William G. Fricke House, Prairie School residence in Oak Park, United States.

The William G. Fricke House features horizontal banding, wide eaves, and a distinctive three-story tower with thin vertical windows.

Frank Lloyd Wright designed this residential building in 1901 during his partnership with architect Webster Tomlinson.

The geometric forms and natural materials used in the house represent the architectural principles of early twentieth-century American residential design.

Located at 540 Fair Oaks Avenue, this private residence remains closed to public access but visitors can observe its exterior features.

The house deviates from Wright's typical horizontal emphasis through its central three-story tower and angular projection near the entrance.

Location: Oak Park
