About the Event:
Join us on Saturday, October 7th, at 10 AM for Coffee + Conversation with Jessie Gemmer. Jessie will be discussing building your spatial vocabulary.
We live every moment of our modern lives in a constructed world designed by people we never meet. The spaces we live, work, play, love, grow and grieve in affect us – physically and mentally – but within a shroud of mystery that cloaks the world of architecture. In order to understand how the built environment affects our existence we must first identify what it’s made out of and then how it makes us feel. Please join us for a conversation about the basic building blocks of the physical world, as we work together to understand the magic powers of architecture and design.
Enjoy delicious coffee or a mimosa (21+), light breakfast foods, and design-centered discussion.
