Image by lumierefl
designed for friend and Chicago lumberman James Charnley (1843-1905) by Louis Sullivan (1856-1924) assisted by draftsman Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) • Wright declared it first modern house in US • in autobiography FLR made disputed claim design was his:
Adler and Sullivan refused to build residences during all the time I was with them. The few that were imperative, owning to social obligations to important clients, fell to my lot out of office hours. They would, of course, check up on them in good time. Sullivan's own home on Lake Avenue was one of these, as was his southern house in Ocean Springs and the house next door for the Charnleys.
The city house on Astor Street for the Charnleys, like the others, I did at home evenings and Sundays in the nice studio draughting rooms upstairs at the front of the little Forest Avenue home.... In this Charnley city-house on Astor Street I first sensed the definitely decorative value of the plain surface, that is to say, of the flat plane as such.
