Prairie Style

relationship to natural surroundings, changed the face of modern architecture. In this

those of two architects he inspired. Cameras tour Wrights 1904 Tomak House in
Illinois, Dan Whites house in Vancouver, and the Donald Fraser residence in Ontario.
Architectural historian Hal Kalman and architects Barry Hobin and Dan White discuss the
innovations and details of these groundbreaking homes . (24 minutes, color)
