I Love This Piece of Architecture

"Fallingwater"
Frank Llyod Wright
Fallingwater, also known as the Edgar J. Kaufmann Sr. Residence, is a house designed by American architect Frank Lloyd Wright in 1935 in rural southwestern Pennsylvania. The house was built partly over a waterfall in Bear Run. I love this piece of architecture. The artist show incredible creativity which makes the structure very unique. It is perhaps one of the most well known pieces of architecture in American society. The structure is liberated from the constructs of what is considered a home and instead is a form of self expression. It is almost part of the waterfall itself, as though it was put there naturally. To me, this is a true work of art and is my personal favorite structure.
