]]>Here are a few of his most famous ones.
Perhaps his most famous designs and definitely one of the most beautiful, Fallingwater is an absolute masterpiece. It is one of eight of Wright’s buildings to be added to the UNESCO World Heritage List, and perhaps the most unique. As the name suggests, it is a beautiful house built over a waterfall in rural Pennsylvania, 43 miles southeast of Pittsburgh.
The Guggenheim Museum is also one of Wright’s most famous works, partly because of its location in New York City, and partly because it was the last building he designed before his death in 1959. Completely contrasting New York City’s grid, the museum’s exterior is made of white concrete swirling towards the sky. The famous spiral staircase inside is the masterpiece of the museum, and attracts visitors both for the art and for the famous architecture.
This residence in Pasadena, California, was Wright’s first textile block home. The house was completed in 1923 and looks like real life Legos coming together. What is unique about this home is that despite being built of many concrete blocks, it blends in to the surrounding nature, fitting Wright’s slogan of organic architecture.
