“Rudolph’s decline and fall is usually depicted, in self-soothing American Puritan allegory, as a kind of rake’s progress ending in dissipation and chastened old age.”

helps deter future demolitions and makes our work easier!

Love to see some Rudolph in there 👏👏👏

Four of the architects were wrong and one was right. Strangely, the one who was right was the architect. Who designed the project?
Wright: Mies designed it because it’s modern
Kahn: It’s clear from the brickwork that Wright was the architect
Rudolph: Mies didn’t design it
Johnson: Mies did it because of the steel detailing
Mies: Wright was the architect because of the decorative concrete block
Five architects were called by a client who wanted to hire the designer of a home on the cover of Architectural Record. One of them had designed the house. Here’s what they said:
So if it were Ducks vs Decorated Sheds, the Ducks would win hands down. But against the Buckeyes? 🧐
Poor Rudolph
We are excited to announce the NYC Landmarks Commission voted unanimously this morning to calendar the Paul Rudolph duplex apartment at Modulightor! Next step will be a public hearing. If passed, the interior will become one of only 123 other interior designations in NYC.
