architecture (selected)
I WAS A PRACTICING ARCHITECT FOR 10 YEARS PRIOR TO BECOMING A SET DESIGNER. I SPENT MOST OF MY TIME AS AN ARCHITECT WORKING WITH MITCHELL KURTZ ARCHITECT PC DESIGNING THEATER AND CULTURAL ARTS SPACES. I CONTINUE TO CONSULT WITH THEATERS AS AN ARCHITECT/SET DESIGNER, AND I ALSO FIND MYSELF DESIGNING MANY SETS THAT SIGNIFICANTLY INCORPORATE AN ELEMENT OF DESIGNING THE AUDIENCE CONFIGURATION. AS A SET DESIGNER, I AM ALWAYS THINKING ABOUT THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HUMAN BODIES IN SPACE AND SO THE AUDIENCE IS TYPICALLY PART OF MY CONCEPTION OF THE SET DESIGN. HERE ARE SOME EXAMPLES OF DEFINITIVELY ARCHITECTURAL PROJECTS, AND SOME SET DESIGN PROJECTS WITH AN ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN COMPONENT.
