Bill’s Design Talk: Michael Graves
Thursday, December 16 | 6:30–8:00 p.m.
2 East 91st Street

From Cooper-Hewitt:
Internationally renowned architect and designer Michael Graves will provide an intimate portrait of his celebrated career and discuss the influences that shaped his thinking and approach to design - from his early days as a student and recipient of the American Academy in Rome's prestigious Prix de Rome to his distinguished academic career at Princeton University; to the development of his firm into a global design enterprise practicing architecture, interiors, product design and graphic design. He will also share the very personal inspirations that led him to challenge many of the arcane ideas that have shaped healthcare design in the past.

Members $10; non-Members $15, Students (with valid ID) are free. Register online at or contact the Education Department at 212.849.8353 or cheducation@si.edu.

Paula is a principal at Pentagram and an absolute inspiration to many of us at 20x200. Her "accidental" start in mapping may have been the result of wanting to keep a $1,000 AIG expenses fee, but her works in permanent collections at the Museum of Modern Art, the Library of Congress and Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum reflect her importance and influence in American art and design.

Cooper-Hewitt has also named Paula a National Design Award Communications Design Finalist.
