Our Cohen Davis Residence on Exhibit
We are taking part in an exhibition and symposium, titled House(ing), at the UNCC School of Architecture, showcasing our >> Cohen Davis Residence << and Toby on a Panel
Organized by the David R. Ravin School of Architecture at UNC Charlotte, House(ing) takes a contemporary look at the single family house as a platform for critical debate and practice.

Houses are (and have generally been) the preeminent field for the architectural vanguard to experiment with emerging design sensibilities and aesthetic ideologies. The scale and specificity of the house offers architects a means to not only tailor designs to specific clients and sites, but to test concepts that reflect evolving cultural attitudes and tastes toward the domestic. Where "home" is the accommodation of an essential need with an appeal to the broadest possible audience, "house" questions how we might live in new ways, and how that speculation might appear in the world.
House(ing) will take place at Storrs Hall on UNC Charlotte's campus 11/6 beginning at 1pm. Speakers Charles Davis and Michaelangelo Sabatino will share their work on how the house shapes our identities and public consciousness.
