In 1935, Frank Lloyd Wright designed a country house for the Kaufmann family over a small stream in Western Pennsylvania. He named it Fallingwater. It, perhaps more than any other building, exemplifies Wright's concept of 'Organic Architecture,' which seeks to harmonize people and nature by integrating the building, the site, and its inhabitants into a unified whole. And today, the iconic image of the house over the waterfall, remains a testament to a great architect working at the height of his career.
Frank Lloyd Wright's Falling Water is heralded as one of the greatest homes in America. The Early Show goes behind closed doors with an intimate look at this living museum. Russ Mitchell reports.
Inside the house, truly impressive.
