Henry Siegel & Larry Strain appointed to Friedman Visiting Professors at UC Berkeley School of Architecture for 2022 Spring Semester

Research, Advocacy, Design: It's All Architecture

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 1:00-2:00 PM PST

In this live streamed event, Henry Siegel & Larry Strain will explore the intersection of design, research, and advocacy in their practice over the past 30 years.

Siegel & Strain Architects has designed a wide variety of projects for mostly institutional clients since the early 1990s. The practice has always combined site and climate-specific design with research on materials and embodied carbon and leading-edge sustainability. Their many community-based projects have been designed in close collaboration consultants, clients, and stakeholders. 

In December, the firm won its 100th design award—a 2021 American Architecture Award by Chicago Athenaeum for the Redwood Visitor Center. Both Larry Strain and Henry Siegel are graduates of the M. Architecture program at UC Berkeley. After graduating, both worked for William Turnbull and Donlyn Lyndon. Henry and Larry became partners, founding Siegel & Strain Architects in 1988.
