The Hotel Paris, at 7 S. Main St. in Paris, Idaho, is a historic hotel that was built in 1916. [1]
The hotel's design includes elements of the Prairie School and bungalow styles. [2] The brick building has flat-roofed porches supported by wooden piers on both street-facing sides. A flat cornice rests below the hotel's roof line. While the Paris Public School also has a horizontal emphasis in its design, the hotel's blend of its two styles is unique in Paris. [3]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. [1]
The hotel is still in operation. It is located next to the historic LDS Tabernacle and a museum in downtown Paris. [4]
Prairie School is a late 19th and early 20th-century architectural style, most common in the Midwestern United States. The style is usually marked by horizontal lines, flat or hipped roofs with broad overhanging eaves, windows grouped in horizontal bands, integration with the landscape, solid construction, craftsmanship, and discipline in the use of ornament. Horizontal lines were thought to evoke and relate to the wide, flat, treeless expanses of America's native prairie landscape.
The Oscar B. Balch House is a home located in the Chicago suburb of Oak Park, Illinois, United States. The Prairie style Balch House was designed by famous architect Frank Lloyd Wright in 1911. The home was the first house Wright designed after returning from a trip to Europe with a client's wife. The subsequent social exile cost the architect friends, clients, and his family. The house is one of the first Wright houses to employ a flat roof which gives the home a horizontal linearity. Historian Thomas O'Gorman noted that the home may provide a glimpse into the subconscious mind of Wright. The Balch house is listed as a contributing property to a U.S. federally Registered Historic District.
