Abstract:
10 Buildings That Changed America tells the stories of ten influential works of architecture, the people who imagined them, and the way these landmarks ushered in innovative cultural shifts throughout US society. From American architectural stalwarts like Louis Sullivan and Frank Lloyd Wright, to modern revolutionaries Frank Gehry and Robert Venturi, this program examines the most prominent buildings designed by the most noteworthy architects of their time. These ten buildings were designed by architects who dared to strike out on their own and design radical new types of buildings that permanently altered the environmental and cultural landscape. The ten buildings described are: the Virginia State Capitol, Trinity Church, Wainwright Building, Robie House, Highland Park Ford Plant, Southdale Center, Seagram Building, Dulles International Airport, Vanna Venturi House, and Walt Disney Concert Hall.
