    This building, constructed over three levels, sits on a rock over a natural waterfall. It’s composition is horizontal, though somewhat complex.

    The house is located on a huge plot of land in the middle of the wild Pennsylvaniaforest. The forest of deciduous trees remains almost completely untamed, interrupted only by a discreet pedestrian access which is the only way of reaching the house. The plot on which the house ended up is also surrounded by the “Bear’s river”.

It was intended that the work be converted into another natural element of the surroundings, in full harmony with it and with the passing of time. From the terrain...

  5. Fallingwater’s landscape has been transformed by water and rock. When the continental plate containing North and South America collided with the continental plate containing Africa, about 300 million years ago, it had a big impact on what would become the Bear Run landscape—multiple layers of sandstone (now known as Pottsville sandstone), shale, and limestone were forced up into long ...
