Joint lecture presented by the 2022 AIA Triangle Design Awards Jury Chair, Peter D. Cook, FAIA, NOMA. Peter will discuss the influence of some of the nation’s leading African American designers—from Abele’s remarkable legacy to the talented J. Max Bond, Jr.— that has helped shape his own career and aesthetic. His own award-winning projects include transformative, enduring designs that celebrate individuals and their communities, such as the unparalleled Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington DC. Through his work, he seeks to create spaces for arts, civic, cultural, and community-based institutions that transcend boundaries, explore diverse contexts, histories, and cultures, and encourage greater inquiry, empathy, connection and understanding.
Join the AIA Triangle Women in Architecture as they host a networking reception at 5:30 pm prior to the lecture. Light food and beverages will be provided.
