Model E3 is one of the standardized house designs from Frank Lloyd Wright's American System-Built Homes, a plan that set out to bring architect-designed houses within reach of ordinary families. Wright developed the system in the early 1910s around prefabricated components that could be cut, shipped, and assembled on site, with a repeatable set of parts meant to lower costs. Few of the designs were built as intended, and the venture never reached the scale Wright hoped for. The drawing is worth studying for how it reflects his ideas about open plans, horizontal lines, and a modern, economical version of the American home.
