Description

This interview series took place for the AIA Custom Residential Architects Network (CRAN) Symposium in Scottsdale, AZSo, I knew that I was going to be in Scottsdale, AZ so I called the office of an architect who I met a few years ago when I was here with a friend who was visiting their office for a project and I got to tag along for a few hours with Vern Swaback of Swaback Partners.  Now for those who don't know who Vern is, let me tell you of an architect who you might know, and that would be Frank Lloyd Wright.  Vern Swaback was the youngest intern at Taliesin and Taliesin West, as he is one of the people who can still tell the stories of being an apprentice at the studio.  I just love to listen to the stories that he tells of Wright but also he speaks of Buckminster Fuller and just of his life and his philosophy which is just appreciation of creativity and life and it is just the most positive experience being there in his studio and being among his work and books and out in the courtyard that he shares with his daughter's adjacent interiors studio.Link to blog post:https://inmawomanarchitect.blogspot.com/2019/10/cran-symposium-2019-interview-with-vern.html
