I highly recommend visiting Frank Lloyd Wright's Falling Water house.

Obviously the house is amazing and pictures don't do it justice. I am not an architecture person but you have to see it in person to appreciate fully the interaction between the house and the environment. Plus it is really well run and the tour guide we had was great.
