Barnett, Allison Park, PA 15101) (Published exclusively for the Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio Foundation, 951 Chicago Avenue, Oak Park, Illinois 60302) H. K. Barnett One of the most picturesque houses in the village, the Moore House is unusual because it was one of the few major pre-Prairie style houses Wright designed in an historic style (English Tudor). According to Wright, the house was built for a man who did not want to shock his neighbors, so it does not demonstrate the level of design innovations Wright had already achieved.
