It was totally cool, and built in 1939. Wright designed the furniture as well, making it out of plywood (which he loved, apparently).

They say Wright concerned himself only with the aesthetics of his creations. When one homeowner complained that the flat roofs leaked (as did this one), Wright replied that the homeowner should get pots and pans to catch the water.
My aunt an uncle used to live in one. It was pretty funky. As far as I could tell the roof didn't leak though.

Lindsay: Well, did it work for those people?

Tobias: No, it never does. I mean, these people somehow delude themselves into thinking it might, but...but it might work for us.
