My favorite

Fallingwater. This is because it has a lot of contexts, which give a range to his design. He definitely created a good result.

Amazing thinking ability exhibited...

My favorite of all Wright's works is Fallingwater. His excellent fusion of nature and architecture will never cease to amaze me.

Small Wright is the Best

My favorite F.L. Wright building is actually the smallest house of his design (built after his death) built overlooking the University of California @ Berkeley's football stadium. I don't know the name of the structure but it is only about 800 sq/ft and incorporates an octagonal design. Beautiful and dramatic are more difficult when the eye is focused on a smaller area. My second most favorite is his studio/home in Oak Park.

The Fallingwater Building

I am a architecture student and when I first saw this structure, it inspired me even more than I already was.

Favorite FLW building

I like his works but, among all, I like Fallingwater the most.

Ennis-Brown House

It is truly a marvel to look at. But if they wanted to get more funding, they really need to set up a tour schedule. It is very sad to be so close, yet so far.

Fallingwater Love Affair

Hi, I saw Fallingwater this past summer and found it an exciting design. The design is inspirational for an architecture student. The complaint I have is the that Mr. Wright was a small man and built this home as though the rest of the world was of diminished height. Let me try to explain this only complaint. I am 6 feet, 1 inch tall and hit my head on most rooms and doors. If it were just a bit taller in all of the rooms and the doors were of average height, it would be a wonderful home. Respectfully, David
