Cooley House by Walter Burley Griffin - 1910-1926
You are purchasing ONLY the 29 architectural sheets described below. The color photos and rendering are not included in this package.
G.B. "Captain" Cooley, son of a riverboat captain and an amateur boater himself made his fortune in the laundry business. When it came time to build a suitably substantial home he turned to one of the leaders of the architectural avant-garde, Walter Burley Griffin. It is likely that Marion Mahony, Griffin's wife and an outstanding draftsperson who worked on many of Frank Lloyd Wright's most important Prairie designs, was involved in the design of this house as well. The design was completed in 1910 but was not built until 1926.
As a work of art these prints are worth purchasing in their own right. For those of you interested in building a historically inspired house, these plans offer an excellent starting point. The main house itself has outside dimensions of approximately 31' x 89', including terraces.

The prints you are purchasing are crisp, high resolution black line copies on white bond paper. The original drawings were beautifully delineated in 2006, by the Historic American Building Survey. Photos shown in the description are NOT included in your purchase. This listing is for architectural drawings only.
SHIPPING: Your drawings are shipped to you, by US Postal Service, rolled, not folded, in a Priority Mail tube.
IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO BUILD: These plans are NOT complete architectural drawings as might be required by your local permitting agency and do not contain all the structural, waterproofing and other details and information necessary for construction. But your local builder or architect should be able to adapt these drawings and add to them as necessary. What they do provide is accurate design information about a REAL Prairie Style home, not a pseudo-Prairie Style tract house as you will find in the house plan magazines on your supermarket shelf.
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS PLEASE NOTE: Orders shipped to addresses outside the USA may be subject to customs duties at their destination. The buyer is responsible for any such duties.
