Fallingwater Selects Firm for New On-Site Housing

There’s to be something happening soon on the property of Frank Lloyd Wright‘s Fallingwater that might surprise some: new construction. Western Pennsylvania Conservancy, the organization who runs the Wright’s most famous creation, have announced that they have selected a firm to build small on-site cottages to house those involved with the educational programming at Fallingwater. The call went out to six firms, who were tasked with building six very green and very efficient housing units on the grounds, and the Vancouver-based firm Patkau Architects landed the gig with their hill-like, almost invisible concept.
