Defining Architectural Design Excellence

2012 AIA Committee on Design ConferenceColumbus, Indiana | April 12-15, 2012

“Great architecture is...a triple achievement. It is the solving of a concrete problem. It is the free expression of the architect himself. And it is an inspired and intuitive expression of the client.” J. Irwin Miller

“Mediocrity is expensive.” J. Irwin Miller

“I won’t try to define architectural design excellence, but I can discuss its value and strategy in Columbus, Indiana.” Will Miller

Colleagues,

Being an old, mostly residential, architect from the boondocks of Alaska with a degree from a school out in the mountains of western Virginia, how can I not be humbled by the people who have preceded me as Chair of the Committee on Design, and for that matter, the people attending this conference.

Welcome to Columbus! Welcome to the Committee on Design! (if this is your first COD event) Work hard, walk far, party hard, and get up at O-dark thirty. That’s how it’s always been since I discovered COD, the best part of the AIA for an architecture lover like me. We’ll continue those COD traditions, but this conference is going to be a little different. It’s still about touring, looking, sketching and photography; but you’ll probably notice a little more emphasis on talking and listening. You’ll have a calm dinner with one of the speakers; an opportunity to argue with a few of those speakers at a pub late into the night; and an invitation to an informal discussion with Gunnar Birkerts, and Ben and Cynthia Weese. I hope you will take advantage of all of these opportunities.

We need to spend more time talking and listening because our profession and our society may be at an important crossroads. Why, here in Columbus, after the efforts of J. Irwin Miller and other enlightened leaders for so many years, are there almost no modern houses? Why do even most of us live in homes that try to look like grandmother’s house? There is an important taste gap between our profession and the rest of American society and it profoundly limits our ability to make meaningful contributions to our shared future.

This conference, at its heart, is about searching for ways to remove that gap. It’s about finding definitions of architectural design excellence that we can believe in, but equally importantly, that our fellow citizens can heartily embrace. Everything about this conference has been designed to encourage you to contribute to that effort.

Do good, learn a lot, and have fun.

Mike Mense, FAIAAnchorage, Alaska2012 AIA Committee on Design Chair

Welcome to Columbus, Indiana

With over 80 modern architectural buildings, Columbus, Indiana was ranked 6th in the nation for architectural innovation and design by the American Institute of Architects. It has been called the “Athens of the Prairie” and “a mecca for modern architecture”, it is internationally recognized as a world-class collection of modern architecture by master architects.

This conference will focus on “Defining Architectural Design Excellence” through design statements, presentations, discussions, parlor chats and after hour conversations with many of the prominent architects who have designed buildings here. We will experience many of the iconic buildings by the masters of modern architecture, as well as many of the recently completed buildings. These will serve as a point of reference to the value and strategy that this community has taken with design excellence.

Thursday begins with a symposium, a tour of a Cummins engine plant, and the opening reception at the new Commons, where we will be joined by members of AIA Indianapolis. Friday we will explore the modern architecture of downtown Columbus, tour the Miller House and Garden, and have an exclusive reception and dinner at the Cummins Corporate Office Building with Cummins executives and community leaders. Saturday we will visit the modern architecture throughout the city, have a panel discussion, and celebrate at the annual COD banquet. Sunday we will venture off to the often forgotten modern architecture in Hope, Indiana and conclude with a brunch and closing discussion.

We hope your experience here the next three days will find Columbus, Indiana as unexpected, unforgettable, uncommon and different by design.
