Answer to Question 1

Wright's approach to domestic architecture was characterized by two related principles: a house should blend with its environment and interiors and exteriors of houses should be visually and physically integrated. The Kaufmann House is an example of architectural integration with the surrounding environment and the merging of natural landscape features with the organic flow of the interior.

Answer to Question 2

Increasing awareness of environmental concerns has created a growing interest in healthy, efficient homes. Architects have a common objective to design and build structures that reduce the overall impact of health safety and the environment, which is an advantage of green architecture. However, while many people would opt for a green structure, the cost of building one can be beyond the range of most budgets.
