The George Barton House at 118 Summit Avenue in Buffalo, New York, was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and built in 1903–1904 as part of the Darwin D. Martin House Complex, a major work of his Prairie School period. Planned by Larkin Soap Company executive Darwin D. Martin for his sister Delta Martin Barton and her husband, George F. Barton, it was the first structure completed in the complex and Wright’s first building in Buffalo. Its cruciform plan, central two-story living spaces, and flowing interior reflect Wright’s early exploration of open domestic design.
