prairie home
Grassland frontier house
A prairie home is a house on the open grasslands of the American Midwest, evoking pioneer settlement and rural self-sufficiency.
The phrase carries nostalgic connotations of simple, wholesome living—reinforced by Garrison Keillor's long-running radio program *A Prairie Home Companion*.
Prairie-style homes, architecturally, refer to Frank Lloyd Wright's horizontal designs meant to echo the flat landscape.
