This fascinating course will acquaint you with the ways historic buildings are being improved and even saved. Bradley Cambridge and Richard Renaud, with Ann Arbor’s nationally known Quinn Evans Architects, will explain the differences between restoration, preservation and renovation. They will describe the blending of these methods to meet the needs of current building codes, modern technology, energy efficiency and interior standards mandated by the Federal government. Learn about the role of the architect in guidance and decision making. They will illustrate with significant examples of this work including UM’s Hill Auditorium, the Knapp Centre in Lansing and the Colorado State Capitol Dome.
