  My first thought was Frank Lloyd Wright. I did a quick search and found many 
sites that showcase his buildings and provide geometric discussion about his 
design. Good luck.

I am asking for some input. I just had a teacher with whom I don't 
work a lot with request bringing her class in - YEAH! She is 
covering geometry and would like them to go to websites to identify 
buildings with geometrical patterns. She wants me to provide 10 
different buildings and websites. I immediately thought of the 
pyramids and the Pentagon, but does anyone else know of any buildings 
that include trapezoids, parallelograms, spheres, cylinders, etc.? 
Or have any ideas on some great websites to send the students to find 
information? I greatly appreciate your help! I will work hard at 
it, but wanted to ask for any input any of you have as well because I 
would like to get back to her as soon as possible with a great list 
in an effort to encourage more collaboration!
Thanks so much!
