Modernism started in Germany and France but was spread quickly throughout the globe. The closing of Bauhaus caused many designers to flee from Europe and come the the United States. I want to go into commercial interior design so I was especially interested in Perkins and Will. Perkins and Will design firm was established in 1935. "Founded on the belief that design has the power to transform lives and enhance communities, we collaborate with clients all over the world to create healthy, sustainable places in which to live, learn, work, play, and heal." I believe that is a very powerful statement from their Firm Profile. The firm does works in architecture, interior design, branded environments, urban design and landscape architecture. Perkins and Will is consistently ranked among the world's top design firms.
Some works they have done are:
The Johns Hopkins Hospital
Ballou Senior High School
University of Oregon, Matthew Knight Arena
I wish to work in an architect firm like Perkins and Will one day.
Peer Review:
Bailey: It was interesting learning more about William Lescaze. I enjoyed all your sky scraper pictures.
Kate J: I really enjoyed your pictures you chose of Richard Neutra's houses. The lighting in the Kronish house picture really makes the house look elegant.
