Editorial: Jon Jerde the Apostate

摘要

I love the two columns in this issue of architect: Danielle Rago's interview with emerging talent Jimenez Lai of Bureau Spectacular (page 53) and Karrie Jacobs' reflection on the work of the late Jon Jerde (page 61). It's a great juxtaposition of subjects. If historian Charles Jencks were to include both designers in one of his evolutionary diagrams of modern architecture, they'd belong in roughly the same genomic zone, the one labeled "Gleeful Outsiders."
