Wright, Frank Lloyd: Fallingwater

The «Architecture in Detail» series comprises books that focus on individual buildings noted for their exceptional character, innovative design or technical virtuosity. Each volume contains a text by a respected author, a sequence of colour and black-and-white photographs and a set of technical drawings and working details. Strategically placed above a waterfall, Fallingwater's horizontal cantilevered floors and terraces soar free of apparent support. The building exemplifies Wright's attitudes towards integrating architecture and nature.
