Wright was a depraved individual. Caused lots of destruction in the lives of the people around him. And his constructions were shoddy, like the leak in this roof.

And nobody has leaks in their roofs today, right? Carpenters were building houses that had never been designed in this way before, and it is always a matter of experiment how well it pans out.
Nothing amazing about that. If you have a family, you have children, and there are valid reasons for setting their rooms aside in a separate wing (noise and commotion being the main ones).
It may surprise you to learn that a house is well-designed in regard to how well it performs its functions as a dwelling. Lloyd Wright learned from his mentor, Sullivan, that "form follows function."

I hate social "Engineers"
Ah yes, the "children" wing...

Help red-pill me on FLW
I loved learning about him in high school, we did a whole section on he and his houses. Falling Water was my fav for years.
Looks like a swaztika
Agreed... one of my first thoughts.
Not in the least. It is a pinwheel cross. The swastika is an ancient Hindu symbol and is a cross with bent arms.
Very nice!
