Centerbrook Architects Lecture Series continues its ninth tear with ‘DREAMS’ – designing homes by Seattle Architect Tom Bosworth, FAIA
The Essex Library is honored to welcome Seattle architect, Tom Bosworth, FAIA, on Friday, October 28th at 7 p.m. as part of its Centerbrook Architects Lecture Series. Bosworth, a gifted educator, architect, and speaker, will talk about designing his award-winning, unique homes. After graduating from Yale and working with Eero Saarinen in the 1960’s, he moved to the Seattle area to teach at the University of Washington and opened a practice designing houses. Over the following decades he became one of the most influential architects in the Pacific Northwest, whose designs reflect a sense of place and emphasize the use of natural light and the relationship of the building to the landscape. The spirit of his house designs is illustrated in his 2006 book ‘Building with Light in the Pacific Northwest’.
The lecture is free and open to all. It will be held in ‘The Cube’ at Centerbrook Architects, 67 Main St. in Centerbrook. For more information or to register, please call the Essex Library at (860) 767-1560.
