Building Modern from the Architect's Standpoint

Building Modern from the Architect's Standpoint
Thursday, October 18th, 2007
Cleveland Artist's Foundation

The second 'Third Thursday' lecture in the Cleveland Goes Modern, Design for the Home series which presents the idea of attempting to build modern structures in Cleveland from the architect's point of view. What happens when a design review committee lacking vision or builder's unwilling to try 'new' construction methods hamper the fulfillment of your vision (I guess you end up with typical Cleveland vernacular)? Peter Van Dyke and Richard Fleischman will do their best to answer this question. Special guest Don Hisaka.

A must see for anyone wanting to attempt to construct anything outside of Cleveland's Townshack comfort zone. After last month's spirited discussion on the history of modern residential design in America (which I didn't summarize here because there was no way to do it proper credit) I can only surmise that this week's forum will be, well, amazing.

I look forward to seeing you there.
