As we continue with our Frank Lloyd Wright series, next I present to you the children’s playroom! I utterly adore this room! Wow, and what a playroom it is! Talk about phenomenal! I could have spent hours in this room, as an adult or a child! With its curved ceiling and large windows, this space is ideal for spending time with a child-like imagination, and the tall, prairie grass a mere few steps away (now I’m back in 1907 here)!!
Gorgeous! Thank you for sharing this series. I love seeing all the pictures!
Why thank you so much my dear! I have more coming soon! I just love this house. He was amazingly ahead of his time, wasn’t he? Cher xo
It is amazing! Like you I could easily spend a day in the playroom.
Oh yes, me too!
The natural lighting makes it absolutely perfect 🙂
Oh I agree, Andy! It really does work perfectly, doesn’t it? Cher xo
ya 🙂 add a glass ceiling and done 🙂
Right?!! 😉
one word…wow!!
I agree my dear!! Cher xo
he was way before his time, so unique and lovely.
Oh yes, that is for sure!! Amazing to think this house is more than 100 years old, isn’t it? Cher xo

It is indeed my pleasure; thank you!!

Magical space!
Isn’t it just? Can you imagine being a child in this wonderful room? Cher xo
I’m intrigued by the lighting in this room. The wooden colors are warm and relaxing 🙂
Oh yes, Frank Lloyd Wright’s Prairie Style intentionally incorporated nature and natural colors in every structure. It is so hard to believe this building is over 100 years old, isn’t it? I agree; such a warm and relaxing room! Cher xo
Forget the children, I want to play in there! 😉
Big hugs, Cher, thanks for the lovely pix!!! xo
I sure do too, Donna! Wait until you see more pics! What a place! Can you imagine spending a wonderful stormy day in there, or a sunny, super day? It’s suited for any weather anytime!! I love it! Thank you, dear Donna! Big hugs, Cher xo
I can picture a gorgeous stormy day, the rain running down those windows, the gentle tap on the roof…beautiful.
That sounds ideal, Donna! I wonder how many times they sat in that room experiencing it just like that!!! Bliss!
Cher…all that LIGHT! Wonderful.
Isn’t it great? I love this room!! Cher xo

Well thank you for letting all of us know, John! Please make note of John’s new site, everyone! Cher xo
Cher, IMHO, Wright was the best. I’ve always admired his work. Thanks for this. 🙂
Hi dear Carol! It is so wonderful to hear from you! I love his work, too! I will be posting more photos of his house!! Hope all is well with you! Cher xo
I agree, this is fabulous. A room to breathe in.
Ah yes, I completely agree, Hilary! Cher xo
I love everything about this room! I could live in it 🙂
Me too, Helen! I would be so happy with just this one room! Cher xo
Back in my working life I used to travel to Chicago every month (which always included a weekend in which I was a tourist). I am happy to have seen this very room. I loved Wright’s incorporation of light and air. Fantastic.
WOW! What an enchanting room… my mind is making up fairy tales at a glance. I want to play here 🙂
Ah my dear, I know exactly what you mean! It is enchanting, isn’t it? And to think it is over 100 years old is incredible!!!! Cher xo
