MARJORIE BARRICK MUSEUMReflecting and Projecting: 20 Years of Design Excellence
December 10 - February 28, 2015 Although all of us spend the majority of our lives in and around buildings, few stop to think about why we like certain spaces. What goes into designing great buildings? What kind of physical world do we want to live in? What people, processes, tools and ideas allow us to give form to our aspirations? Everyday our values, ideas and aspirations influence the things we build and the environments we create. Reflecting and Projecting
provides a unique opportunity to ponder these important questions while celebrating the great architecture produced by architects in Nevada over the past 20 years. This exhibition of the AIA Nevada Excellence in Design Award-winning projects from 1994 - 2014 is presented by the Las Vegas Chapter of the American Institute of Architects in collaboration with the UNLV School of Architecture, UNLV Galleries and the Marjorie Barrick Museum.
