Installation with Peter Zumthor

In 1999 Swiss Architect Peter Zumthor taught a group of 12 students at Harvard University for the first and only time. Finding the Graduate School of Design facilities unsuitable for his teaching methods, he instead rented a large brick single-story warehouse in nearby Somerville, Massachusetts.

Simon Aldridge

Born in London in 1974, Simon Aldridge is an artist, architect, and designer. After earning a BSc degree from London’s Bartlett School, he won a Kennedy Scholarship to Harvard where he studied art and architecture. It was at Harvard’s Carpenter Center, designed and established by Le Corbusier, that he was taught to think of art and design together. His inter-disciplinary practice today merges these theories with contemporary post-conceptual culture.
