Pin holes for hanging. Unused.Wurster was born in Stockton CA. During his years at Stockton Public High School, Wurster worked in the office of Edgar B. Brown, an Englishman known for designing the Stockton Hotel and the Children's Home. After graduating in 1912, Wurster enrolled at Berkeley in 1913, receiving a classical Beaux Arts education. When a physical ailment kept Wurster from voluntary military service in WWI, he studied marine engineering at the University of California, Berkeley and joined the merchant marine in 1918. In 1919, once he had completed a year's tour of duty in the South Pacific, he returned to the University to graduate with honors in architecture.Following graduation, Wurster briefly apprenticed in the office of John W. Reid Jr., a San Francisco architect, before Wurster became the architectural designer for Charles Dean in 1920. For the next two years, he worked designing the city of Sacramento's water filtration plant. He also worked independently, designing several small residences. In 1922, Wurster embarked on a tour of Europe through 1923 then joined Delano and Aldrich in NYC. In 1924 William Adams Delano lent Wurster money to open his own office and he returned to Berkeley.In 1940, Wurster married Catherine Bauer, an influential figure in the field of public housing. He met Bauer attending the Harvard Graduate School of Design, both taking classes from the German Socialist city planner Martin Wagner. Wurster's graduate studies at Harvard were interrupted when he was appointed dean of the architectural and planning school at MIT in 1945, a position he held for five years. In 1945, Wurster co-founded Wurster Bernardi & Emmons with Theodore Bernardi and Donn Emmons. Both Bauer and Wurster withstood accusations of disloyalty from the California Tenney Committee during the Red Scare of the late 1940s. In 1950, he was named dean of the UC Berkeley School of Architecture. In 1959, he orchestrated the creation of the UC Berkeley College of Environmental Design, which brought the three schools of architecture, landscape architecture and urban planning into one organization. He served as its dean until his retirement in 1963 for health reasons. Wurster Hall is named in his and his wife's honor.Sturtevant worked a great deal in the San Francisco Bay Area in the 1930s-1950s, with such figures as architect William Wurster and landscape architect Thomas Church; Sturtevant was an important figure in helping to publicize the work of the Second Bay Region School just before WW II;Sturtevant won the first American Institute of Architects Photography Gold Medal Award in 1960. …

Hardcover. Condición: New. 1 x 12.5 x 9.5 Inches.

Hardcover. Condición: New. Over the course of a career that spanned forty-five years, William Wilson Wurster (1895 1973) designed hundreds of residences up and down the West Coast. Like Finnish architect Alvar Aalto, with whom Wurster maintained a close professional exchange, Wurster blends modernism with the vernacular. Wurster described these homes as "frames for living": spaces that could be fully transformed by the occupant to meet their needs and desires, well-designed canvases for homemaking. Authors Caitlin Lempres Brostrom, AIA, and Richard C. Peters, FAIA, draw upon extensive historical research as well as personal relationships with Wurster to tell the story of his career, including both residential and institutional building. The Houses of William Wurster features new and archival footage of thirty-three of the architect's best-known houses and includes a foreword by Donlyn Lyndon.…
