March Desktop Background
Fallingwater, one of Frank Lloyd Wright’s most widely acclaimed works, was designed in 1935 for the family of Pittsburgh department store owner Edgar J. Kaufmann, Sr. Fallingwater was their weekend home from 1937 until 1963, when Edgar Kaufmann, jr. entrusted the house, its contents and the grounds to the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy. In 1964, WPC opened Fallingwater to the world, providing visitors from near and far the opportunity to learn more about design and architecture, and experience this iconic view.
