Laskey Charette Kickoff Lecture: Jonathan Louie and Nicole McIntosh

Join us Friday, February 16, at 5:30 p.m., for a lecture with Nicole McIntosh and Jonathan Louie, leaders of Architecture Office, a Zurich-based Swiss American practice. Their research and design are influenced by images that create new contexts for architecture. Their practice engages with a variety of scales and typologies, ranging from restaurants and workspaces to exhibition design and houses. Recent work has been exhibited at the Yale Architecture Gallery, the Kunsthaus Glarus, and the Seoul Biennial of Architecture and Urbanism. As educators, they are the 2023-24 Hyde Chair of Excellence at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. Their contributions to design and research have been awarded by the Architectural League Young Architect’s Prize, ACSA Faculty Design Award, and the Swiss Art Awards. Built projects have been recognized by Architects Newspaper Best of Design Awards , Interior Design Best of Year Awards, and the Frame Awards. Their most recent publication “Swissness Applied: Learning from New Glarus” won the Deutsches Architekturmuseum Architectural Book Award.

This event is part of the Sam Fox School’s Public Lecture Series and is free and open to the public. The lecture will take place in Steinberg Hall.
