Architecture critic Paul Goldberger will interview Marion Weiss and Michael Manfredi of the New York City-based multidisciplinary design practice Weiss/Manfredi at LongHouse Reserve in East Hampton on Thursday, July 31, as part of the LongHouse Talks series.
The designers will discuss themes from their latest monograph, “Drifting Symmetries: Projects, Provocations and Other Enduring Models,” which will be available for purchase.
“In an era when the dual challenges of climate change and social isolation loom large, ‘Drifting Symmetries’ emerges as a pivotal exploration of architecture’s role in shaping a sustainable and connected future,” the book’s synopsis states. “Weiss/Manfredi’s groundbreaking work transcends the boundaries between landscape, infrastructure, and architecture by reinventing sites in response to environmental and social challenges.”
The event will begin at 5 p.m. Tickets are $35, or $25 for LongHouse members. Purchase at longhouse.org.
