BRICK IN ARCHITECTURE AWARDS
continued from page 33
"The project represents the skillful weaving of an elaborate cultural/educational program around three existing box-like structures. The result is a complex structure with a variety of major elevations, each linked to a formalized exterior space or to a specific natural feature of the site. What began as a traditional college campus of isolated buildings is now a fully weather tight unit with an interior landscape of great variety.
"The brickwork has been accomplished with great care given to both architectural detail and execution. Subtle coloration anchors the building to the plateau from which it rises, and the layering of big patterns on long, unrelieved walls results in a lively exterior that operates differently from close up and faraway."

Hood Museum of Art
Dartmouth College, Hanover, NH
Architects: Centerbrook Architects
The jury had the following comments about this Hanover, N.H. project:
"The Hood Museum of Art, located at Dartmouth College, disproves the old saying 'two's company and three's a crowd.' The building's calm yet assertive "elbowing in" between the highly unlikely partners of Richardsonian Wilson Hall and Harrisonian Hopkins Center is masterful. The Hood Museum of Art's eccentric, inward-turning plan and massing works well for the Dartmouth campus in this 'squeezed context."
"The building's several-colored brick masonry adds to the museum's informal gabled forms, which are reminiscent of the traditional New England architecture."
