Fallingwater
Strategically placed above a waterfall, Fallingwater’s horizontal cantilevered floors and terraces soar free of apparent support.
The building exemplifies Wright’s attitudes towards integrating architecture and nature. Fallingwater is recognized as one of Frank Lloyd Wright's most acclaimed buildings. It is a supreme example of Frank Lloyd Wright's concept of organic architecture, which promotes harmony between man and nature through design so well integrated with its site.
