I think every aspiring architect will come across Frank Lloyd Wright soon enough in their career. I learned about his work last year, in my art class. We studied his designs and from that created our own design using similar techniques. He is well known for harmonizing his designing with the surrounding environment. This became known as organic architecture. His career as an architect lasted about seventy decades, which lead to more than 1,000 designs with 532 of them built and completed. In 1991 the American Institute of Architects named him "the greatest architect of all time", which I also believe.
Wright has contributed much of his career to a diverse amount of structures. He has built personal residences, churches, schools, offices, hotels, and etc. My favorite of Wright's work is Fallingwater. In this piece I can see how the building and the nature are one. What I like even more of this piece is the interior design, which he also designed himself. I like how his vast talents can be seen from the structure itself but also inside it as well.
