The Frank W. Thomas House is located in the Chicago suburb of Oak Park, Illinois, United States. The building was designed by architect Frank Lloyd Wright in 1901 and cast in the Wright-developed Prairie School of Architecture. By Wright's own definition, this was the first of the Prairie houses - the rooms are elevated, and there is no basement. On September 14, 1972 the Frank Thomas House was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.
The Motawi Tileworks has joined with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation to create a stunning collection of authentic Wright designs. The collaboration has allowed Nawal Motawi to search the Foundations' achives at Taliesin to rediscover these classic designs. According to Nawal, searching the archives was "an artists dream come true."
Working from orginal Wright drawings, Nawal and the skilled craftsmen at Motawi Tileworks have captured the genius of Frank Lloyd Wright in their trademark style and quality. Learn more about the life of Frank Lloyd Wright
