Honors Studio - Daniel Libeskind

1982 University of Houston Honors Studio Program

An architectural program which invited prominent architects to provide design projects to the students twice every semester. In this example Daniel Libeskind, the then director of the Cranbrook Academy of Art's Department of Architecture, asked us to examine the Piranesi "I Carceri d'Invenzione" series of etchings in order to create a new architecture. This is where the intersection of architecture and art, literature and poetry, began.
