Organic architecture
There are four elements of organic architecture: First: people live close to nature.
Second: nature is a source of design
inspiration. Third: Local materials are used in their natural
(raw )form.
Fourth: going with the natural climate ratherthan fixing artificial one.

Criticism
The inhabitants instead of having a wonderful
view of the fall cant even see it with the house
right on the top of the falls.
Sometimes the noise of falling water becomes
irritating.

CRITICISM
Some people, especially artists, criticized
Wright for creating a museum environment that
might overpower the art inside.
Challenges are presented by continuous spiralramp gallery that is both tilted and has non-
vertical curved walls.
Any vertical object appears tilted because theslope of the floor and the curvature of the walls
could combine to produce vexing optical illusion
