Dear Jeffrey,

"Architecture is the very mirror of life. 
You only have to cast your eyes on buildings 
to feel the presence of the past, the spirit of a 
place; they are the reflection of society. Stop 
worrying about missed opportunities and start 
looking for new ones." (I.M. Pei)

Regards,
R

2377. Des Moines Art Center


 











Dear Frank,

"This eloquent and masterful building, completed in
1968, profoundly enhanced the Art Center while
respecting the materials palette and scale of the original
Saarinen building." (Tim Hickman)

Regards,
