Major Assignment - Post 7

North Perspective of the office/showroom





FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT - Falling WaterFRANK LLOYD WRIGHT - Robie House

For the showroom/offices i decided to look at Frank Lloyd Wright's Robie House and his infamous falling water. Both houses highlight his use of organic architecture, linking the environment with the house by opening up corners, "where man was able to see through corners for the first time". Not only this, but he used his famous method of exploding the box to create a puzzle of rectilinear shapes, which i have tried to mimic in my designs above.

Hey nice 3d Finch. Mimicks Wright's design principles well with all the cantilevers and material useage. Would have been hard to adapt his organic architecture into an industrialist building but you've done a good job. Wil be interesting to see how it is constructed!
