The entire house is built of pre-cast, terra-cotta-tinted concrete blocks, formed on a 2-foot module.
Not that I'm a FLW expert, but I haven't seen that in other houses.
I love FLW, but I hate his no-garage insistence and if I actually had the money for a house like that, I would have to add a garage of some sort.
I have never actually been in a FLW-designed house, however, I have been in one designed by one of his disciples.

Coincidentally, I toured the FLW Home and Studio and FLW-designed Unity Temple in Oak Park, IL, today. Touring the Robie House in South Side Chi-town tomorrow.
