Architect Peter Pennoyer to Discuss New York Firm's Development and Projects
Architect Peter Pennoyer, a principal with Peter Pennoyer Architects in New York City, will present a lecture at 12:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 13, in the west classroom at the Inn at Carnall Hall on the University of Arkansas campus.
Pennoyer, his partners and his 30 associates have a national practice in traditional and classical architecture. Many of the firm’s institutional and commercial projects have involved historic buildings. Projects include Hodsoll Mckenzie, in London, and the Colony Club, The Metropolitan Opera Club, New York Genealogical and Biographical Society, The New York Stock Exchange Luncheon Club, and The Mark Hotel, all in New York City.
The firm’s projects have been widely featured in newspapers, books and periodicals, including The New York Times, Architectural Digest, Design Times, and House & Garden. The Vendome Press published a book about the firm in October 2010.
Pennoyer is co-author of The Architecture of Delano & Aldrich, The Architecture of Warren & Wetmore, and The Architecture of Grosvenor Atterbury (with Anne Walker). He and Walker have also written the introduction for a reprint of Frank M. Snyder’s Building Details. Pennoyer is chairman of the board of The Institute of Classical Architecture & Art.
In this talk, Pennoyer will discuss how the firm developed, what makes it unique, and how it achieves design through construction services differently from other firms. James Taylor, also of Pennoyer’s firm, will join him.
Pennoyer received a Bachelor of Architecture from Columbia College in 1981 and a Master’s degree from Columbia Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation in 1984. While in graduate school from 1981 to 1983, Pennoyer worked as a designer in the Manhattan office of his Columbia professor, Robert A. M. Stern. He established his own practice in 1984, where he was principal in the firm Pennoyer Turino Architects P. C. until 1990. He then formed Peter Pennoyer Architects in New York City.
This lecture is presented by the Fay Jones School of Architecture. It is free and open to the public.
