SUMMARY:Materials & Methods: Crafting Excellence with Caren Yglesias
DESCRIPTION:ABOUT THIS LECTURE\nNational award-winning projects have something in common: not only are they designed to be sustainable and require zero-net energy once built\, but they also respect and respond to the local community’s history and culture\, as well as the Genius Loci. Further\, they are designed while thinking about form and materials in creative and innovative ways. This presentation looks at thirty projects\, large and small\, by different architects and landscape architects\, for the inspiring ways the traditional fourteen materials are employed reflecting 21st century needs and goals. \nABOUT CAREN YGLESIAS\, PhD\, AIA\, Hon.ASLA\, University of Maryland\n7 years to obtain a Ph.D. in architecture from the University of Pennsylvania after getting a B Arch from Virginia Tech\, MA in philosophy from Georgetown University\, and a MS in Architecture from Penn. \n15 years of service as a member of the American Association of University Women\, reviewing the international fellowship grants in the Arts & Humanities for graduate studies in this country. \n3 books: The Complete House and Grounds: Learning from Andrew Jackson Downing’s Domestic Architecture\, published by the Center for American Places\, Columbia College Chicago in 2011; The Innovative Use of Materials in Architecture and Landscape Architecture: History\, Theory and Performance published by McFarland in 2014; and a monograph of landscape architect Steve Martino’s work\, Desert Gardens of Steve Martino published by The Monacelli Press in 2018\, which was reviewed by the New York Times\, a lifelong dream of mine.
