?Each of these buildings offers innovative solutions to the needs for housing, worship, work or leisure,? read a statement from the World Heritage Committee. ?Wright?s work from this period had a strong impact on the development of modern architecture in Europe.?
The committee met Sunday in Baku, Azerbaijan, and also added to the list Italy?s hills of Conegliano and Valdobbiadene, which is home to the world-famous sparkling wine Prosecco. The group noted Wright?s use of ?organic architecture,? including an open plan, with blurred boundaries between exterior and interior, and the ?unprecedented use? of steel and concrete. The Wright buildings are the 24th U.S. site on the list.
The other Wright buildings included are the Frederick C. Robie House in Chicago; Taliesin in Spring Green Wisconsin; the Herbert and Katherine Jacobs House in Madison, Wisconsin; Fallingwater in Mill Run, Pennsylvania; and Taliesin West in Scottsdale, Arizona.
