DESIGN TEAM activities are facilitated by Frank Lloyd Wright Trust Educators in collaboration with students from the University of Chicago Laboratory Schools.

Color and Light: The World Through My Window

At the Robie House, Frank Lloyd Wright created incredible window designs inspired by the natural world around him. Wright’s windows feature geometric patterns made from clear and colored glass framed by bold metal lines.  Grouped together in horizontal bands the windows flood the interiors with sunlight and open the building to the world of nature outside.

Explore, geometry, color and pattern, as you make your own unique window designs inspired by Wright’s magnificent Robie House windows.
