Commercial Design

We got to stop for lunch in Columbus IN and it was so fascinating! My brother told us about this special enclave of mid-century design and once we read about it we had to make the half hour detour; from the @nytimes “It’s a company town with a twist: It has an unusual depth of remarkable modern, postmodern and contemporary architecture, making it one of America’s most design-sophisticated communities. The Saturday Evening Post once called Columbus “Athens on the prairie” for its dozens of notable buildings, particularly by the Finnish-American architect Eero Saarinen (including the strikingly spire-topped North Christian Church, 1964) and his father, Eliel Saarinen (the blocky-but-ethereal First Christian Church, 1942). Later contributions have come from Robert Venturi, I. M. Pei and Richard Meier, among others.”
SO WORTH IT.
