In recognition of what would have been the 103rd birthday of its namesake, the Fay Jones School of Architecture and Design will host special events Wednesday in Vol Walker Hall
On the 103rd anniversary of the birth of Fay Jones, the Fay Jones School of Architecture and Design will host special events Jan. 31 in Vol Walker Hall and honor David Salmela and David McKee.
A cluster of wood-clad buildings surround a central courtyard at this Minnesota residence by Salmela Architect for clients who formerly lived in Japan.
American firm Salmela Architect has designed a solar-powered urban-infill house that is meant to demonstrate a new way forward for single-family housing.
Called Electric Bungalow, the project in Saint Paul, Minnesota, was designed for Thomas Fisher, a longtime architecture professor at the University of Minnesota, and his wife, Claudia Wielgorecki.
Electric Bungalow is in Minnesota
The house sits near the university, in the St. Anthony Park neighbourhood.
The clients have lived in the area for two dozen years. After purchasing a new property near their original home, they contacted Salmela Architect – based in Duluth, Minnesota – to design a sustainable dwelling that embraced the local context.
