Louise invited as guest critic to review Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute student designs for our upcoming museum project

May 10th, 2012

Louise was delighted to join Rachel Lawe, Director of the International Collage Center, noted collage artist, Michael Oatman and his Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute architectural students for their spring final design jury. This event was particularly noteworthy because the project was to plan the new International Collage Center Museum which our firm will be designing in the near future. The insightful designs were, in part, a result of a recent student field trip to the museum site in Milton, Pennsylvania, where Louise, Rachel and Pavel Zoubok, the inspiration behind the new museum, discussed how the intersection of collage and architecture will define the project.

Louise discusses “Universal Design in Museums” with museum professionals at the Greater Hudson Heritage Network Annual Meeting at the West Point Museum

October 14th, 2011

Louise lectured about our experience designing and building the Derfner Judaica Museum as a prototype for creating inclusive public spaces for our current and future elderly. There is no time like the present to address issues of universal design because of the surge in the elderly population of the advancing baby boom generation. Boomers want sophisticated "more than accessible" cultural institutions. This is we, as architects, must provide.

Louise speaks about our “Whole New Mind Approach to Architecture” in a radio interview with Ted Garrison

September 28th, 2011

As a followup to our inclusion in Daniel Pink’s pivotal book A Whole New Mind, Ted Garrison invited Louise to discuss her approach to challenging architectural projects.
