Frank Lloyd Wright’s home and studio is located in Oak Park, Illinois.
Wright moved to Oak Park in 1889, shortly after marrying Catherine “Kitty” Tobin. That year he built the original house, where he and Kitty raised their children. He later expanded the residence and added a separate studio building in 1898.
The complex became an important laboratory for Wright’s developing ideas. From the Oak Park studio, Wright and his associates designed dozens of buildings, including many early Prairie-style houses. Wright lived and worked there until 1909, when he moved away from Oak Park.
The house and studio are separate but interconnected structures at 428 Forest Avenue and 951 Chicago Avenue. Today, the restored property operates as a historic house museum. Oak Park is a village in suburban Cook County, immediately west of Chicago, so “Chicago” is a tempting but imprecise answer: the site is in Oak Park, not within the city itself.
