Architectural Research & Writing

My primary research project centres on the Centre Pompidou in Paris seen from the perspective of the client. It examines the rationalization of architecture that took place in response to the social disruptions of 1968, along with the development of a corresponding set of graphic and formal techniques. In the mid-2010s I participated in a larger research project on Southern California architecture in the 1970s.

From 2017-2020 I was the Multimedia Reviews Editor for the Journal of Architectural Historians. My goal was broadly expand the definition of multimedia and to treat buildings as media in themselves.
