The remarkably open interior, in which Wright eschewed the Victorian hierarchy of public rooms for warm central spaces that gave primacy to family life, embodies Wright's desire to liberate space. The dining room, added in 1895 together with a barrel-vaulted playroom, marks the architect's first attempt to create a unified environment. Wright designed everything in the home, from the lighting and mechanical systems to its furniture and decorative arts. It is, however, the playroom that best reveals Wright's increasing embrace of simplicity.
