I get what you’re saying but Falling Water is notoriously damp, rusting, and uncomfortable. Most of his houses are form over function.

A house can be aesthetically appealing and matched to its surroundings without being leaky or damp. A house that is ugly and out of place can also be leaky and damp (they often are because those architects often are also prioritizing form over function, but an ugly form instead of an appealing form).
