🎧  Listen to Introduction

The estate includes eight buildings designed by Wright in the United States during the first half of the 20th century. These include the famous Fallingwater (Millen, Pennsylvania) and the Guggenheim Museum (New York). All buildings embody the "organic architecture" that Wright developed, including open floor plans, blurred boundaries between indoors and outdoors, and unprecedented use of materials such as steel and concrete. Each of these buildings provided innovative solutions to the needs of living, worshipping, working, or relaxing. Wright's work from this period had a strong influence on the development of modern architecture in Europe.
