  • Fallingwater House 3D. The house designed by #American architect Frank Lloyd #Wright for Edgar Kaufmann in southwestern #Pennsylvania, hangs over a #waterfall using the architectural device known as the cantilever. Wright described his architectural style as "organic"--in harmony with nature, and though #Fallingwater reveals vocabulary drawn from the International style in certain aspects, this country house exhibits so many features typical of Wright's natural style, the house very much engaged with its surroundings. © Sjon Velzeboer

    I recently visited Fallingwater. I have studied Frank Lloyd Wright since the early 1960s, when I got a book with beautiful black-and-white photos of the house. I have made it one of my life's journeys to visit the accessible Wright homes, including those at Usonia in New York. I had earlier taken the tour of Taliesen. As familiar as I was with the house, when we made our way down the road and caught our first view, I felt that the structure was smaller than I had imagined. The tour was fascinating, and I noticed something that I hadn't seen in all the photos and videos. The cantilevers look robust from the outside, but, standing on the terraces, you realize that the walls are only about 2' high, with rounded tops. Rather unnerving, indeed. No way to sit down on the top and look down to the creek. Definitely not a house for small children!

He was done the second his customer drove up to his studio. I would imagine he had this cooking in his head (who knows for how long). But nothing was on paper until Kaufmann knocked on his door. WOW.

  • @supermash1
    @supermash1 Před rokem

    I heard a story that Mr. Kaufman phoned Frank Lloyd Wright and asked how the project was coming along, since he hadn't heard from Wright in a while. Frank replied, "I'm ready to show you the design Mr. Kaufman, come on down to my office." The story goes that Wright had nothing on paper, he had only the idea of the house in his head. So he drew it out in the few hours before Kaufman arrived.
    I don't believe it, especially since Wright loved to embellish his mystique at every opportunity.
    You can only wonder at the design though, a true landmark piece of architecture in the cannon of all architecture. He was a genius with immense talent.

    Somehow, this Fallingwater house keeps haunting me. I saw it on one of my random google image searches and at first mistook it as the Juvet Landscape Hotel which was used in the "Ex Machina" film. And then I saw it the 2nd time today after learning about Ayn Rand's inspirations on her "The Fountainhead". I'm not even a student of Architecture. It's just a hobby of mine to create floor plan ideas and such. However, there's something about Fallingwater that is so familiar to me. It's like something I would design myself if I were to build my own house in a forest.

    Franks mother knew he was going to be an Architect and at the right age introduced him to Frederick Froeble the father of what is called the Kindergarten. Froebles gifts were introduced to Frank at certain stages of his childhood development. This is proof that all this stuff will ferment and percolate and what a guy he was. This home was designed in minutes and held in suspended animation in Wrights minds eye while the owners were non there way tp meet him and wanted to see how far along the house was coming.Ive been in a design studio setting when projects were due and its gut wrenching but like wow Frank just wow.I was always told and was under the inkling that there were or has never been a genius in Architecture but if there was one all signs point to Frank Lloyd Wright .

      Many years ago Edgar Tafel told that story at a Glasgow Art Club event. My recollection (possibly flawed by age) was the client arrived for an outline of Mr Wright's concept for the building and was kept at reception whilst the basic rough sketching was produced. In the same event Mr Tafel had us in hysterics about Mr Wright's severe distaste for flashings & how the assistants conspired with builders to incorporate in as 'invisible' a manner as possible. The Johnson Wax building was, as I recall the source of quite a few leaks early on. I remember the huge warmth Mr Tafel had for Mr Wright and what a great nights storytelling about a real hero it was!

    Eye-catchingly wonderful, but probably not so wonderful to live in. I think I read somewhere that it is dripping with damp. The built-in furniture looks very nice and neat, but the chairs and sofas are probably not so good to relax in. You'd probably need a handrail on the steps going down to the river when you get a bit older, too. All in all, the sort of thing you get from ambitious architects (like Mies' Farnsworth House, for example). They are happy to design it and happy for you to pay for it, but they probably wouldn't want to live in it themselves. But, as I commented on The Farnsworth House - "you need to ask yourselves what you want. A comfortable, mediocre house to live in? Or some discomfort and immortality?" I hope to visit later this year or next.
