2001 to 2006

During the boom of federal building construction in the early 2000s, I worked on contract with GSA’s Design Excellence staff members to visit new courthouses and other federal facilities and write detailed monographs about each of them. I fulfilled other assignments for GSA to edit design competition brochures, a guide to art conservation. It was a very fertile time for progressive design in federal projects, which were selected by rigorous juries of design peers in architecture and allied disciplines.
