    "The most productive of the Prairie School firms of the time, Purcell and Elmslie included in all their thinking the conviction that a building does not end with its simple structure but reaches its final and logical culmination in the clothing--color, situation and natural environment together with its decoration of glass, terra-cotta and other textural materials."
