    Falling Water

    • 1019 Words
    • 5 Pages

    The project that I chose is a very unique American house called Falling Water. Falling Water is built over the top of a waterfall, and is suggested to be the most well-known private house in America not belonging to someone of royal blood (Storrer, 2002). I would love to visit this house as I like waterfalls and I think the way this house has incorporated the waterfall into its design is fascinating. The house was designed by a famous American architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, in 1935 for the Kaufmann family. The house was completed in 1939 and covered an impressive 5330 square feet and the additional guest house was an additional 1700 square feet.…

The site itself is surrounded by a hill that is sloping down towards the Hayden Lake and the cabin is surrounded by trees since the cabin is located near a forest. This existing landscape naturally creates both a privacy and openness toward the nature.…
