Storrer and John Sergeant, who wrote the first detailed analysis of the Usonian houses, saw them as simply variants of the Usonian concept, but Edgar Kaufmann, an apprentice at Taliesin at the time of their conception, saw these geometrical exercises springing from a different source, the Hanna House, a contemporary of the first Jacobs House.
The equilateral parallelogram, the module used in the Kraus House, was a third variation using 60-degree and 120-degree angles.
