A. P. Johnson House, Prairie School cottage in Delavan, United States.

The A. P. Johnson House features horizontal wood siding, low-pitched hip roofs with broad eaves, and one-story porches extending towards Lake Delavan.

Frank Lloyd Wright designed this residence in 1905 during his transition period from classical designs to the fully developed Prairie School architectural style.

The residence incorporates leaded colored glass windows with repeating decorative patterns and a central living area connected to the dining room and study.

The house sits on a 6-acre property on the south shore of Lake Delavan, offering views of the water from its position on a small wooded hill.

According to records, Wright departed on horseback and never returned after discovering the house had been painted white instead of his specified dark natural color.
