Frank Lloyd Wright

Frank Lloyd Wright was an American architect whose designs fundamentally reshaped residential and civic building in the twentieth century. He developed the concept of organic architecture, integrating structures with their natural surroundings through innovative use of cantilevers, open floor plans, and locally sourced materials. His projects ranged from the Prairie School houses of Chicago to Fallingwater in Pennsylvania and the Guggenheim Museum in New York, each demonstrating a conviction that buildings should grow from their sites rather than impose upon them. His influence extends across modernism, landscape integration, and spatial planning.
