From 5:28 to 6:09 can be seen two pieces of furniture made for the Allen bedrooms whose drawings are in one of the George Mann Niedecken books. At 6:22 are some Heritage Henredon "Taliesin Line" pieces.

A very fine house. It compares well with earlier Prairie houses, but has not gotten the same attention as Robie and May, nor even Bogk.

It certainly looks like it got the full treatment. The dropped laylight feature above the dining table uniquely anchors the latter in the room, seeming from photographs even to incorporate the two into one element ?
