Nick Deaver AIA explores the personal journey of architecture and how awakening the senses can reconnect us with the natural world in “Land, Building, Spirit,” a Zoom presentation hosted by the Essex Library on Friday, Jan. 8 at 7 p.m. as part of the Centerbrook Architects Lecture Series.

This talk reflects on discovery and placemaking from Connecticut to Venice to Texas. Deaver’s award-winning work celebrates modesty, beauty, and meaning focusing on creating memorable places that respond to the local context with a commitment to minimal demands on the environment. Deaver’s work includes private residences, office buildings, theaters, arts and academic buildings, university housing, research laboratories, medical facilities, and recreational buildings.

This Zoom presentation is free and open to the public. Registration is required. For more information or to register, call the Essex Library at 860-767-1560 or visit www.youressexlibrary.org
