a lecture by
Deborah Berke, Fellow, the American Institute of Architects, LEED AP,
Principal, Deborah Berke Partners, New York City
Date: March 3, 2015
Time: 6:00 pm, preceded by a reception at 5:30 p.m.
Place: Arkansas Arts Center lecture hall
As the founding partner of the architecture and design firm that bears her name, Deborah Berke oversees a staff of fifty, a skilled team that deals with a diverse portfolio of projects ranging from campus master plans, cultural and arts facilities, university buildings, hotels – Bentonville’s 21c Museum Hotel among them – and custom residences. All projects, large and small, share the Berke imprimatur: a “knowing simplicity”.
Berke, an award winning design professional, will talk about creating buildings that are “inevitable though not predictable” as well as the relationships between a designer’s vision, life patterns and place. Her lecture, which is free and open to the public, is made possible by the collaborative effort of Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art and the Architecture and Design Network.

I look forward to seeing you there!
