Yesterday PAYETTE’s Young Designer Core (YDC) observed the progress of the construction site at the Harvard Art Museums in Cambridge. PAYETTE is collaborating with Renzo Piano Building Workshop on this renovation and addition. For more information about the project, visit the Harvard Art Museums’ website.
Due to the close proximity of this project site to PAYETTE, we have been able to lead small groups on tours throughout construction. Because the project is now nearing completion, this is an especially exciting time for a tour: While nearly finished areas show the design intent, they still reveal enough of the construction so the group can understand the method of assembly.
“You have to do a really good job to do what society needs. That’s something that is worth it.”
Payette’s Jim Collins reflects on the importance of architecture in creating spaces for future generations to enjoy.
