The materials mainly used in this building are glass, concrete and timber, as well as steel beams to support the interior of the building and to lodge the underground segments into the ground more firmly. A steel cover is used to provide shade for the second floor.

This is Fallingwater, one of my favorite pieces of architecture. I like how the building melds in with it's surroundings, following the natural forms around it as well as using materials and colors which are similar to the stone waterfall forms around it. The design of the building also helps it meld with the surroundings instead of sticking out.
