Frank Lloyd Wright was deeply committed to the idea that the home and all its furnishings be a comprehensive work of art. One of his key collaborators was Milwaukee-based interior decorator George Mann Niedecken. This catalogue presents a range of Wright-Niedecken collaborations during the decade from the inception of the Niedecken-Walbridge Company in 1907 to Wright's final dwellings in the Prairie idiom circa in 1918.
The catalogue takes a commission-based approach to their work. Both believed in the unity of residential architectural and interior design, and each influenced the other in furnishing many of Wrights best-known Prairie School houses, including the famous Robie, Coonley, and May houses.
