Summary
Author Biography
Richard Meier began his career in the early 1960s designing projects whose elegant modernist style and white facades have become icons of modern architecture. He has received numerous awards for his work, including the Pritzker Architecture Prize and the Gold Medal of the American Institute of Architects. Kurt W. Forster has taught at Yale University, Stanford University, MIT, ETH Zurich, and Bauhaus University at Weimar and founded and directed research institutes at the Getty Research Center in Los Angeles and the Canadian Centre for Architecture in Montreal. Alberto Campo Baeza is the founding principal of his eponymous architecture studio and emeritus head professor of design in the Madrid School of Architecture, ETSAM, where he has been a tenured professor for more than thirty-five years.
