He graduated from Hammond High School in 1937, attended Southeastern College for one year, and then attended Tulane, where he earned a degree in architecture. After his service in the Navy during World War II, he earned a master's at M.I.T. and worked for a firm in New York and for architect A. Hays Town in Baton Rouge. In 1952 he opened an architectural practice in Hammond, the first architectural practice in the Florida parishes. His firm included Jack Davis, Bill Burks, and others, and they served as school board architects in Tangipahoa Parish for about 20 years. In the early 1960s, the firm enjoyed a dual practice with an office in Baton Rouge for 10 years. Then, in the early 1970s, Desmond closed the Hammond office. His firm has been known as Desmond, Miremont, and Burks, and later Desmond and Associates. Baton Rouge buildings he and his firm designed include the Louisiana Naval Museum, the Bluebonnet Swamp Interpretive Center, the Louisiana Arts and Science Center, the Louisiana State Archives, Louisiana State Library, Pennington Biomedical Research Center, the Louisiana State University (LSU) Union, and the Centroplex. Several local churches and buildings at Southern University in Baton Rouge and Southeastern Louisiana University in Hammond are also his designs. In addition to public and religious buildings, Desmond also designed several residences in Louisiana, the Florida parishes, and surrounding states. His designing John Schwegmann’s home led to a long association with the Louisiana-owned grocery store owner, and Desmond consequently designed all the Schwegmann grocery stores in New Orleans and the surrounding area and in Baton Rouge. Desmond also taught architecture classes at LSU and Southern University and is the author and illustrator of Louisiana’s Antebellum Architecture. He retired from private practice in 2002. SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE Collection contains office files such as correspondence, construction meeting minutes, schematics, reports, bid proposals, and change orders for each project or building; design development drawings and renderings; specifications and construction drawings; and photographic prints, negatives, and slides from Desmond’s architecture firm. Some business records and informational and promotional materials about the firm are present as well. Also included are professional materials relating to Desmond’s participation in the American Institute of Architects’ Regional Urban Design Assistance Team and a small group of Desmond’s personal papers. These records document many of Baton Rouge’s most recognizable and important buildings from Desmond’s first conception of how the building would look through the construction and engineering of the finished product. 4 DESMOND (JOHN) PAPERS Mss. 4792 1954-2003 LSU LIBRARIES SPECIAL COLLECTIONS ARRANGEMENT AND SHELVING The collection is largely shelved and presently arranged according to material type. It is still considered unprocessed. Design development drawings and renderings show the development of Desmond’s concept and idea of each project. These include pen and ink, pastel, and printed drawings. These are referred to as “flat files,” and they are located in wooden flat file storage units in the map cage. See container list to locate materials for a specific building. Architectural construction drawings include drawings reflecting changes in design as a project progressed, as well as the final set of drawings used in construction. The majority of these are located on 1 North, ranges 148:-149:, and are referred to as “rolled drawings,” though some are also mixed in with the design development drawings and renderings in the flat files. See container list to locate materials for a specific building. Job-related office files such as correspondence, construction meeting minutes, schematics, reports, bid proposals, change orders, specifications, photographic negatives, prints, and slides for orders for each project or building document the relationship between the contractor, architect, and owner. Photographs include those by Frank Lotz and Hursley. All of these materials are housed in record center boxes, which are located on 1 South, ranges 32:-33:. See container list to locate materials for a specific building. Records and informational and promotional materials about the firm, professional materials relating to Desmond’s participation in the American Institute of Architects’ Regional Urban Design Assistance Team, and a small group of Desmond’s personal papers are housed in record center boxes. These are also located on 1 South, ranges 32:-33:. See container list to locate these materials.
