Frank Lloyd Wright's Falling Water

by Donald Hoffmann

A total revision—both in text and illustrations—of the standard document on Fallingwater, the boldest, most personal architectural statement of Wright’s mature years. Updated with valuable new material from the recently opened Frank Lloyd Wright Archives, the book gives special emphasis to Fallingwater’s architectural innovations: cantilevered construction, ingenious integration with a majestic waterfall, use of reinforced concrete, and more. Over 100 photos depict the site, every phase of construction and the distinctive interior and exterior detailing. "Fascinating"—The New York Times.
