MAW, AIA UTAH, PRESIDENT oday we find ourselves facing circumstances unprecedented for us personally as well as professionally. To adhere to the government request for “social distancing,” I, like many of you, am working Tfrom home. My new co-workers right now consist of my wife, my two daughters and two overly excited canines. Each of these co-workers have schedules and tasks that are entirely different from my own. None of them share my same enthusiasm for sustainable architecture, BIM or best practices for a successful architecture firm. I have yet to find anyone here who can help me with Revit, Bluebeam, or in-depth knowledge of the 2018 IBC. I am slowly adapting. As we all get through these events, I hope you are too. We have much to learn from each other at this time, and I want to let you know that AIA is here for you as your connection to each other and the profession. During this time, AIA Utah will continue to be a resource for you. The board of directors and committees will continue to meet through virtual means. We are currently exploring ways to help you maintain your educational progress and stay informed in the best way possible. Expect further developments in April regarding continuing education opportunities and more details on how to transfer the architecture profession in this new environment. I am certain you all have seen an increase in service and awareness in your communities as we weather through this time. I firmly believe that the best way to get through this is TOGETHER! Now more than ever, we need successful collaboration within our membership. I don’t believe any of us are happy with the latest string of events. I think the wizard Gandalf in Lord of the Rings had the best advice I have heard regarding situations like this one: “So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.” b Sincerely, Jarod F. Maw, AIA President, AIA Utah 6 REFLEXION | 2020 | AIA Utah THANK YOU ALLIED MEMBERS!

  • 2016 Annual Report Message from the VP
    2016 Annual Report Message from the VP: Dear FMD Colleagues, We all worked hard in 2016 so that Duke University could continue to be one of the most prestigious Universities in the country. Facilities Management is an incredible team with a wide variety of skills and the dedication necessary to keep the campus operating smoothly. Three words come to mind when I think of 2016: Construction, Collaboration, and Commitment. FY 2016 was the year of the crane on Duke’s campus; there have never been more construction cranes on campus at one time than over the past year. More than 1.6 million square feet was renovated or constructed on campus this year. As a result, our department had to adapt in order to manage the growth. To manage Duke’s growing campus, our department has to work together. This year four collaborative teams were created to help us do our job more effectively: 1. A Project Steering Team was created to ensure projects receive proper review in a timely fashion. 2. A Critical Systems Team, made up of engineers and operations staff, was created to manage high performance buildings, such as French Science and CIEMAS. 3. A Quality Assurance Team consisting of staff from Project Management, Utilities & Engineering, and Facility Operations was created to improve the transition from construction to occupied buildings. The team is charged with making certain all systems work as designed and can be properly maintained. 4. Lastly, University Environmental Services is working to identify best practices as it relates to a standardized level of service for highly visible areas, starting with the new West Union.

  • Julian Abele: Architect and the Beaux Arts Uncovers the Life and Career of One of the First Beaux Arts Trained African Amer­Ican Architects
    Julian Abele Julian Abele: Architect and the Beaux Arts uncovers the life and career of one of the first beaux arts trained African Amer ican architects. Overcoming racial segregation at the beginning of the twentieth century, Abele received his architecture degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 1902. Wilson traces Abele’s progress as he went on to become the most formally educated architect in America. Abele later contributed to the architectural history of America by designing over 200 buildings during his career includ- ing the Widener Memorial Library (1913) at Harvard University and the Free Library of Philadelphia (1917). Architectural history is a valuable resource for those studying architecture. As such this book is beneficial for academics and students of architecture and architectural historians with a particular interest in minority discussions. Dreck Spurlock Wilson is a graduate of Iowa State University, USA and the University of Chicago, USA. He was an Associate Professor of Architectural History at Howard University and Lecturer in Landscape Architecture at Morgan State University and is a licensed landscape architect. Dreck is the editor and a contributing author of the Biographical Dictionary of African Amer ican Architects, 1865–1945 also published by Taylor & Francis. Minorities in Architecture The new Minorities in Architecture series by Taylor & Francis brings to light research from across the globe by and about underrepresented archi- tects to present leading perspectives on a diverse range of topics. Against the background of race, ethnicity and gender, and the intersections between them, it provides the reader with the latest scholarship in the field of archi- tecture.

Horace Trumbauer collection Collection V36 Horace Trumbauer Collection, ca. 1898-ca. 1947 2 boxes, 112 flat files, 16 rolled items, 4 lin. feet Collection V36 Abstract Horace Trumbauer was born in Philadelphia in 1868 and became one of the city’s leading architects in the early middle part of the 20th century. He established his own firm in 1890 and, with a team of talented designers, began designing mostly private residences. In 1894, he completed “Grey Towers” for William Welsh Harrison in Glenside, Pennsylvania. Several years later, he designed “Chelton House” for George W. Elkins and “Lynnewood Hall” for P.A.B. Widener, both in Elkins Park, Pennsylvania. He also created residences in other states such as New Jersey, New York, and Rhode Island. By the middle of his career, Trumbauer had begun designing commercial and public buildings as well. Locally, he designed the Philadelphia Museum of Art in Fairmount Park and parts of the Free Library. He also designed buildings for Jefferson Medical College and the Hahnemann Medical College. He designed several college and university buildings throughout the country, most notably much of Duke University’s campus in Durham, North Carolina. He also designed Widener Library at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

The library faces south onto Logan Circle and the Benjamin Franklin Parkway that runs at a diagonal from Vine Street. Owner: The library is part of the Free Library of Philadelphia system and is owned by the City of Philadelphia. Present Use: Central library Significance: The Central Library, built between 1917 and 1927, was designed by well-known architect Horace Trumbauer and his associate Julian Abele and it is the flagship of the Philadelphia Free Library system. Favoring French architecture of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, they based their design on the twin Ministere de la Marine and Hotel de Crillon on Place de la Concorde in Paris. The library was the first structure to be erected along the city's new parkway, which was likewise inspired by Parisian precedents, namely the Champs d'Elysee. It too was the work of Horace Trumbauer, with architects Paul Cret, Clarence Zantzinger, and French planner Jacques Greber. Intended as a grand boulevard linking City Hall to the Philadelphia Museum of Art and Fairmount Park, it was later named for Benjamin Franklin. The parkway and the civic structures and monuments that line it were a product of Philadelphia's City Beautiful movement.

    Judge Julian Abele Cook, Jr. 1930-2017 Julian Abele Cook, Jr., former Chief Judge of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan (1989-1996), died May 16, 2017 at his home in Silver Spring, Maryland. He was born on June 22, 1930 to Julian Abele Cook, Sr. and Ruth McNeill Cook in Washington D.C., where he attended public schools, graduating from Dunbar High School in 1948. Judge Cook earned a Bachelor of Arts from the Pennsylvania State University in 1952 and served in the U.S. Army (Signal Corps) from 1952 to 1954. Upon his return, he entered Georgetown University School of Law and earned a Juris Doctor in 1957. He subsequently received a Master of Laws from the University of Virginia School of Law in 1988. Judge Cook was a proud descendant of a prominent civic-minded family in the District of Columbia. His great great grandfather was John Francis Cook, a freed slave who along with other leaders founded the Columbian Harmony Cemetery, the 15th Street Presbyterian Church, and a school for freed slaves. John F. Cook II, his great grandfather, became Recorder of Deeds in Washington D.C. His great uncle, George F. T. Cook, became the first superintendent of colored D.C. public schools.

  • The Sunday Times Frank Gehry's Plans for the Philadelphia Museum
    The Sunday Times Frank Gehry’s plans for the Philadelphia Museum of Art Published: December 31, 2017 by Jeremy Melvin The architect is famous for the flashy exterior of the Bilbao Guggenheim—but his latest museum project will be all but invisible In 2002, Frank Gehry went with his friend the artist Ellsworth Kelly to the Philadelphia Museum of Art. The art world was still buzzing over Gehry’s spectacular Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, completed five years earlier. So when the director, Anne d’Harnoncourt, recognised the stellar pair in her galleries, she went to greet them. “You’ve done this amazing thing in Bilbao,” Gehry remembers her saying. “Could you be interested in doing something where nothing will be seen on the outside?” D’Harnoncourt knew that however forbidding her “temple of art” seemed from the exterior, it had many hidden qualities and enormous unused spaces. These might provide the galleries, education facilities, shops and cafes that museums need in the 21st century. Exploiting them, though, would mean overcoming the barriers between viewers and exhibits that the great neoclassical museums can imply. The Sunday Times At Philadelphia, this is especially difficult, reflects Timothy Rub, who became director after d’Harnoncourt’s untimely death in 2008. The museum is set on a hill that “falls away quickly in all directions”, so, unlike New York’s Metropolitan or the Art Institute of Chicago, it could not expand, perhaps with radically different architecture, into a surrounding park. The only scope for alteration was internal, so something other than the magic of flamboyantly crinkly titanium-clad forms that made Bilbao so striking was needed.
