Conversations With A Modern Architect Series: A Conversation With Corey Martin
September 15, 2010 |
Join Rejuvenation and Becca Cavell from THA Architects as we talk with cutting edge Portland architects. All proceeds go to the Street of Eames Fund, which supports two after-school programs for homeless children in Portland.
Most architects sketch their designs in two-dimensional space first, either on paper or computer, but Martin, who has had two homes featured in the Street of Eames home tour, has a different process. As he says, "I think there is something in my wiring that is different than the pure architect's makeup in that I've really got to build and make things myself." Want to know how that plays out when he's working on high-profile projects like SE's Butler Residence or his 2003 design of the University of Oregon football team's locker room? Well, come ask him.
Corey Martin got his start working in the offices of Richard Potestio and Allied works, and in 1999 he started his own furniture, sculpture, and design firm. In 2005 he joined efforts with local developer and architect Ben Kaiser to form PATH Architecture. An award-winning, multi-discipline firm, PATH Architecture excels in urban high-density developments, adaptive re-use for existing structures, and environmentally considered, site-specific residential architecture. Martin's architectural designs are rooted in his deep understanding of the Pacific Northwest landscape and his appreciation for the natural world.
