Significant Pieces of Architecture 2 - Frank Lloyd Wright

Frank Lloyd Wright

Fallingwater
Ohiopyle, Pennsylvania
Date: 1934, 1938, 1948


Frank Lloyd Wright would have to be in my top 5 architects as he continues to push the laws of design, physics and architect and implement his own taste and design factors to the architectural world. Frank Lloyd Wright represents the distinctive aspects of aesthetical characteristics and ergonomic geometry to make those inside his buildings appreciate the design and functionality of it. Fallingwater can emphasis on the way Frank Lloyd Wright emphasised on the modernistic approach and the placement having it within the mountain and into the landscape.

This building can elaborate on the concepts and ideas in relation to my model for Felix as I wanted to capture the areas for Felix to be isolated in a distant environment. For Felix his environment will be within a volcanic area with flames and no one around beside him and his people, which will prevent the predators from coming without seeing them.
