Perkins Eastman Co-CEO and Executive Director Shawn Basler
“We resist creating architecture for other architects. You see it everywhere—buildings that are devoid of place and culture. Our idea is building for people. We do strive to create interesting architecture that’s unique, but what are the elements that make it about the place where you build?”
Basler discusses this approach, along with the value of starting small, staying connected, and helping people, in a wide-ranging interview with ArchDaily’s Vladimir Belogolovsky.
