On Thursday, September 25, 2014 Ryerson University's Department of Architectural Science will continue their ongoing series of architecture lectures with a talk by Vancouver-based architect D’Arcy Jones of D’Arcy Jones Architecture.
Jones, who has degrees in Environmental Design and Architecture from Dalhousie University and the University of Manitoba, will speak about different themes and styles found in modern architecture in the lecture, titled 7 Themes: Details 2000-2014.
Jones’ studio designs renovations, houses, galleries, landscapes and commercial spaces in a distinct modern style, suited to the various Canadian markets they work in. Jones’ projects utilize an expressive rawness, and are first conceived as spatial vessels, before being fine-tuned for their intended function.
Jones’ architecture has earned him plenty of recognition, and he has had his projects included in architectural publications both nationally and internationally, including press coverage in Canadian Architect, Wallpaper, Gray Magazine and Hauser. Jones is also the recipient of a Canadian Architect Award for a prefabricated cabin called The Cowboy, and won the inaugural Arthur Erickson Memorial Award from the Arthur Erickson Foundation. Most recently, Jones was awarded the 2014 Ronald J. Thom Award for Early Design Achievement from the Canada Council for the Arts.
The lecture is open to the public, and will take place in the Department of Architectural Sciences building at 325 Church Street at 6:30 PM on Thursday, September 25.
