Wilkie Fall 2010 Abstract Tilting at Modern: Elizabeth Gordon’s “The Threat to the Next America” by Kathleen LaMoine Corbett Doctor of Philosophy in Architecture University of California, Berkeley Professor Andrew Shanken, Chair This dissertation addresses the ways that gender, politics, and social factors were exploited and expressed in the controversy surrounding the April 1953 House Beautiful editorial, “The Threat to the Next America.” House Beautiful’s editor, Elizabeth Gordon, wrote and published this editorial as a response to ongoing institutional promotion of experimental modern residential architecture, which fell under the umbrella of the International Style, a term that came from a 1932 exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art. Gordon warned her readers that the practitioners of the International Style, which she deplored as “barren,” were designing and promoting unlivable housing. She specifically condemned German immigrant architects Walter Gropius and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, as well as French architect Le Corbusier.

    Brenda Lam 2512 Manoa Rd. Honolulu, Hawaii 96822 Date: November 2, 2016 To: Review Board for Hawaii Register of Historic Places Dear Board Members, I am resubmitting application LOG No. 201600829, DOC No. 1607MB08: Hart Wood Residence. I am both the owner and preparer of the application for the Hart Wood Residence. I am resubmitting my application to be reviewed at the December 9, 2016 meeting. My original application was reviewed on the agenda of the Historic Places Review Board meeting on August 26, 2016. My application was deferred due to the following: 1. Board requested adding Criterion B- Property is associated with the lives of persons significant in our past. 2. Board requested a floor plan of the second story of the residence. 3. Board inquired why photographs of the upstairs were not included in the application. 4. Board requested further inspection of the second story, beyond viewing the interior staircase and window (which were viewed) which I felt were significant to my application as superior craftsmanship. 5. Board requested adding four elevations of the exterior of the home. These could be sketches, or formal architectural drawings. I am therefore resubmitting the application for reconsideration to be placed on the Hawaii Register of Historic Places. In my revised application I have found new information which is critical to my application and that will be included. I am adding Criterion B, and making the appropriate re-write of the application. I am including a second story floor plan. 1 I am adding five photographs of the upstairs which show the condition of the second floor space prior to roommate moving in.

  • Hawaiian Modern Yale University Press the Architecture of Vladimir Ossipoff in Association with the Honolulu Academy of Arts
    New from Hawaiian Modern Yale University Press The Architecture of Vladimir Ossipoff In association with the Honolulu Academy of Arts Dean Sakamoto 304 pp. 243 b/w + 36 color illus. with Karla Britton and Diana Murphy ISBN 978-0-300-12146-9 $65.00 Foreword by Kenneth Frampton With Don J. Hibbard, Spencer Available at The Academy Shop Honolulu Academy of Arts Leineweber, and Marc Treib Phone: (808) 532-8703 Toll Free: (800) 829-5211 At the forefront of the postwar phenomenon known as tropical modernism, Vladimir Ossipoff (1907–1998) won recognition as the “master of Hawaiian architecture.” Although he practiced at a time of rapid growth and social change in Hawai`i, Ossipoff criticized large-scale development and advocated environmentally sensitive designs, developing a distinctive form of architecture appropriate to the lush topography, light, and microclimates of the Hawaiian islands. This book is the first to focus on Ossipoff’s career, presenting significant new material on the architect and situating him within the tropical modernist movement and the cultural context of the Pacific region. The authors discuss how Ossipoff synthesized Eastern and Western influences, including Japanese building techniques and modern architectural principles. In particular, they demonstrate that he drew inspiration from the interplay of indoor and outdoor space as advocated by such architects as Frank Lloyd Wright, applying these to the concerns and vernacular traditions of the tropics. The result was a vibrant and glamorous architectural style, captured vividly in archival images and new photography. As the corporate projects and private residences that Ossipoff created for such clients as IBM, Punahou School, Linus Pauling, Jr., and Clare Boothe Luce surpass their fiftieth anniversaries, critical assessment of these structures, offered here by distinguished scholars in the field, will illuminate Ossipoff’s contribution to the universal challenge of making architecture that is delightfully particular to its place and durable over time.
