    Wright and Modernism in Indiana Indianapolis, Indiana May 1-3, 2015 VIS A Central Indiana holds a trove of architectural treasures. Some, like Frank PHOTO BY ANNE D Lloyd Wright’s Richard Davis House (1950) and John E. Christian Richard Davis House (Wright, 1950) House–Samara (1954) are tucked away in leafy enclaves, and some, like the midcentury modern wonders of Columbus, hide in plain sight. On the Frank Lloyd Wright Building Conservancy’s annual Out and About Wright tour, you’ll get to see both of Wright’s distinctive central Indiana works as well as several highlights around Indianapolis. Saturday, May 2 ERTIKOFF V We’ll depart from the Omni Severin Hotel starting at 8:30 a.m. to tour the local landmark Christian Theological Seminary (Edward Larrabee Barnes, 1966) and the 2012 AIA Honor Award-winning Ruth Lilly Visi- PHOTO BY ALEX tors Pavilion (Marlon Blackwell Architects, 2010) in the 100 Acres Art & John E.

After a brief stop at local icon The Pyramids (Roche Dinkeloo and Associates, 1967), we’ll head out to Wright’s Samara house in West Lafayette, a copper fascia-adorned Usonian still occupied by its original owner, and Davis House in Marion, with its unique 38-foot central octagonal teepee (we are one of the very few groups to tour this unique Wright work!). A seated lunch is included. We’ll return to the hotel around 6:30 p.m. Sunday, May 3 The list of architects with works in Columbus, Indiana reads like a who’s who of the great modernists: Saarinen, Pei, Weese, Pelli, Meier, Roche..

  • The Restoration of the West Baden Springs Hotel
    Masterpiece of the Midwest ® By Graeme Sharpe The Restoration of the West Baden Springs Hotel ew people realize that a hotel built in 1902 near French Lick, Indi- By Graeme Sharpe F ana once held the title of “World’s Copyright Largest Dome”, and that it was the largest dome in the United States until the Astro- dome was built in 1965. In fact, the West Baden Springs hotel has spent the last 75 years in obscurity, and only the dedicated work of Indiana preservationists saved this landmark hotel from ruin. Thanks to their efforts, this important structure has been preserved, restored to its original condi- tion, and put back into service as a first- class hotel (Figure 1 above). When the West Baden Springs Hotel opened in 1902, industry journals immediately recognized it as an architectural and engineering marvel, naming the hotel the “Eighth Wonder of the World”. It con- tained about 500 guest rooms arranged in a magazinecircular plan and boasted a steel and glass dome spanning 200 feetS above a six-storyT atrium (FigureR 2). The U C T U R E resort also included a smaller domed entry lobby, a natatorium, a powerplant and utility building, and First Floor Plan an attached ballroom. (see sidebar, page 40) The hotel was enormously successful during the affluent era of the roaring 20’s. However, it fell on hard times after the collapse of the stock market in 1929. The hotel business failed and the West Baden Springs Hotel closed in 1932. New ownership followed as the hotel became a Jesuit seminary from 1934-1964 and, later, a university campus, the Northwood Institute, from 1966- 1983.

  • AIA Committee on Design Conference, Columbus, Indiana April 12-15, 2012: “Defining Architectural Design Excellence”
    AIA Committee on Design conference, Columbus, Indiana April 12-15, 2012: “Defining Architectural Design Excellence” Last year Columbus, Indiana was rediscovered in the national media with the public opening of the Miller House and Gardens. An exquisite design collaboration of Eero Saarinen, Alexander Girard and Dan Kiley, completed in 1957, the landmark has been declared “America’s most significant modernist house”. While the house is now owned by the Indianapolis Museum of Art (IMA) and public tours are available through the Columbus Visitors Center, the tours are often sold out, limited in numbers and access. The IMA is providing the AIA-COD the opportunity to visit the house and gardens as an “open house”, with guides distributed throughout to provide information, and is allowing us personal photography. If you have visited Columbus in the past, you are aware of its recognition for its many modern buildings designed by nationally and internationally recognized architects, including Eliel Saarinen, Eero Saarinen, Harry Weese, Robert Venturi, I.M. Pei, Gunnar Birkerts, Kevin Roche, and Richard Meier. Columbus has been called the “mecca of modern architecture” and “the Athens of the Prairie”. In 2000, in a highly unusual move, six modern architecture and landscape architecture sites were designated as National Historic Landmarks; including First Christian Church (Eliel Saarinen), Irwin Union Bank (Eero Saarinen), Miller House and Gardens, North Christian Church (Eero Saarinen), Mabel McDowell Elementary School (John Carl Warnecke), and First Baptist Church (Harry Weese). The AIA COD conference will visit each of these locations. The commitment to design excellence has continued in Columbus the last 10 years, in fact thriving to have had the most construction per capita through the Great Recession.

  • Modernism in Bartholomew County, Indiana, from 1942
    NPS Form 10-900 USDI/NPS NRHP Registration Form (Rev. 8-86) OMB No. 1024-0018 MODERNISM IN BARTHOLOMEW COUNTY, INDIANA, FROM 1942 Page 1 United States Department of the Interior, National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Registration Form E. STATEMENT OF HISTORIC CONTEXTS INTRODUCTION This National Historic Landmark Theme Study, entitled “Modernism in Architecture, Landscape Architecture, Design and Art in Bartholomew County, Indiana from 1942,” is a revision of an earlier study, “Modernism in Architecture, Landscape Architecture, Design and Art in Bartholomew County, Indiana, 1942-1999.” The initial documentation was completed in 1999 and endorsed by the Landmarks Committee at its April 2000 meeting. It led to the designation of six Bartholomew County buildings as National Historic Landmarks in 2000 and 2001 First Christian Church (Eliel Saarinen, 1942; NHL, 2001), the Irwin Union Bank and Trust (Eero Saarinen, 1954; NHL, 2000), the Miller House (Eero Saarinen, 1955; NHL, 2000), the Mabel McDowell School (John Carl Warnecke, 1960; NHL, 2001), North Christian Church (Eero Saarinen, 1964; NHL, 2000) and First Baptist Church (Harry Weese, 1965; NHL, 2000). No fewer than ninety-five other built works of architecture or landscape architecture by major American architects in Columbus and greater Bartholomew County were included in the study, plus many renovations and an extensive number of unbuilt projects. In 2007, a request to lengthen the period of significance for the theme study as it specifically relates to the registration requirements for properties, from 1965 to 1973, was accepted by the NHL program and the original study was revised to define a more natural cut-off date with regard to both Modern design trends and the pace of Bartholomew County’s cycles of new construction.
