Organic architecture, although never as popular as the International style among architectural critics, has been dubbed "the other Modernism." The most famous proponent was Frank Lloyd Wright, but other architects began working somewhat in this manner beginning at the turn of the 19th-20th century and continuing until the present.
"Organic architecture" refers to a unity of the architecture, the landscape, and the decoration and interior elements. The term reflects designs that almost seem to grow out of the Earth and follow nature. In this sense, Organic architecture strikes some as a refined, abstract form of Art Nouveau, with its strong lines and mixture of the natural and the machine age. The highly individualistic designs are also tailored to work well with the particulars of the owners' lifestyles.
