Styles

Organic architecturepromotes harmony between human habitation and the natural worldStructure is well integrated with its site and natural surroundingsfurnishings, interior and exterior reflect each other to create a unified and interrelated compositionExample: Falling Water HouseSlide17

Falling Water

1935rural southwestern Pennsylvania, 50 miles southeast of Pittsburghorganic style built partly over a waterfallintegration with natural surroundingsfireplace hearth is composed of boulders found on the site and upon

which the house was built

one set of boulders which was left in place protrudes slightly through the living room floor

stone floors are waxed, while the hearth is left plain, giving the impression of dry rocks protruding from a stream

where glass meets stone walls, there is no metal frame; rather, the glass is caulked directly to the stone

Bedrooms are small, low ceilings, encourage people outward toward the open social areas, decks, and outdoors

active stream can be heard constantly throughout the house

Question:

Does Bryan Station High School follow this type of design?Slide18
