From his early years in the late 19th century, Wright challenged conventional architectural norms, seeking to create a new architectural language that reflected the spirit of the American landscape and the needs of modern living.

His iconic designs, including the Fallingwater house and the Guggenheim Museum, exemplify his mastery of organic architecture, where buildings seamlessly blend with their surroundings and create a harmonious relationship between the built and natural environments.
