ICAA Influencers: Patrick Ahearn

Описание: In this episode of ICAA Influencers, architect Patrick Ahearn, FAIA discusses the historical influences that guided and shaped his career. After training as a modernist, he found himself inspired by the traditional architecture of New England, and as he describes it, "I really started to get a sense of how classical architecture could influence people, and how classical architecture really embraces the human spirit and scale in a wonderful way." Royal Barry Wills, Greene and Greene, and of course the legendary McKim, Mead and White inspired Patrick's designs as he reshaped entire city blocks in Back Bay and Edgartown, and established himself as one of the premier architects in New England.

This is the fourth episode of the Institute of Classical Architecture & Art's (ICAA) new video series, “ICAA Influencers.” This five-part series interviews today’s top architects on the topic of legacy and how they were inspired and influenced by past design. Each episode reveals a remarkable variety of design inspirations that shaped one of the leading minds of classical architecture: Patrick Ahearn of Patrick Ahearn Architect, Tom Kligerman of Ike Kligerman Barkley, Peter Pennoyer of Peter Pennoyer Architects, Bobby McAlpine of McALPINE, and Jim Strickland of Historical Concepts.
