In Wrights organic designs, he not only used local materials in his construction he also used local colors.
Frank Lloyd Wright’s Color Palette for Fallingwater
🔺
@ppgpaints colors are currently used at Fallingwater and if you swipe you can see the color palette based on Wrights or probably more accurate NATUREs original color palette :)
Fallingwater® Red is @visitfallingwater signature color and is used throughout on the metal framing on windows and doors. It is the color of iron ore, found regionally. The exterior is painted Covered Wagon, a serene color that is reminiscent of the dying rhododendrons in the fall and blends in perfectly with the environment.
