A Laurel Highlands hide away
Fallingwater is a house designed by architect Frank Lloyd Wright in 1935, situated in Pennsylvania, 70 km south of Pittsburgh in the Laurel Highlands.
The house was built over a waterfall on Bear Run and is surrounded by enchanting grounds and wonderful forest. It is truly integrated within its natural surroundings.
For me, the passion for Japanese architecture that Wright held is strongly reflected in the design of Fallingwater, particularly in the harmony between the exterior and interior spaces and then also, the strong emphasis placed on harmony between man and nature.
The house was designed as a weekend home for Edgar J Kaufmann Sr and his wife Liliane and their family.
