Frank Lloyd Wright was approached by the Kaufman family and shown a site where they wanted a house built looking across the creek at a beautiful waterfall. Wright had the arrogance and the talent to perform a miracle and place the house, not to look at the waterfall, but to enhance an become a part of the waterfall! By almost all accounts he was a very unpleasant human being with a miraculous talent for design!
I don't think I have the arrogance or the talent he displayed throughout his life. My efforts are perhaps as pleasing to me as Wright's were to him, but are a bit more modest....less expensive too I might add...it has been estimated that Falling Water would cost 15 million plus to build today as is and millions more if built completely to current codes!
