A Wall That Tracks Trends for Architectural Design
Together, some objects show that it’s constantly moving, changing, always a step ahead of architecture, full of surprises
and unexpected silhouettes, materials and juxtapositions of color.
Years ago when I was visiting the Boston Design Center on the western side of the
building, I saw this bronze sculpture by Tom Corbin and fell in love with it.
I look out on Logan International Airport and the working dry dock from my windows,
and because a wall bordering the hallway is glass, I can see across the building and through those windows.
Also, clean and simple shapes near items with ornate, exuberant detail, like the red square contrasted with the patterned fabrics.
Another grouping again shows my fascination with the marriage of opposites; young, hip, edgy attitude pushing
against classic luxury, or androgyny contrasted with the rough and refined, rustic and elegant.
When Jamestown, an investment and management company, hired us to redesign the building
and exterior space before we moved in, we wanted lots of community space.
