Natural and Organic Forms
• Reaction against mechanization and growth of technology.
• FLW worked under Louis Sullivan• “architecture of democracy” – right to move in a
“free” space• Non-symmetrical designs interact spatially w/
natural surroundings – adjust the building to its site• **continuity**• “prairie house” – reaching out toward the flatlands
– no façade, roofs extended beyond walls, wandering plan based around central hearth, enclosed patios/strip windows – all give sense of motion inside & out [Robie House]
• Fallingwater – enclosing space, not mass• Usonian houses – less expensive, basis for
suburban housing developments post-WWII
