DESIGN OF OUR TIMES / KUDOS TO USMODERNIST: GEORGE SMART, HAIA

USModernist's mission is to document all modernist architecture in the nation from the modest to classic residents like (above) the 1946 Kaufman House in Palm Springs, CA, which was designed by Richard Neutra.  Image by Sim Aarons.

Last week, the national AIA granted honorary membership (HAIA) to USModernist's founder, George Smart. Honorary AIA Membership is conferred upon individuals who have made notable contributions to the advancement of the architecture profession but are not otherwise eligible for AIA membership.
