Minimal Space Design
B & C Custom Hardware is hosting this "Summer Soltice" themed general meeting for our chapter. Soltice was derived from the Latin words sol (sun) and sistere (to stand still), but to stand still is the last thing we want you to do on this beautiful, sunny day and evening. The evening includes a guided gourmet olive oil tasting, with appetizers while networking. This will be followed by a delighful dinner catered by Le Pain Quotidein. A signature cocktail will be featured in addition to beer and seasonal wine. Once dinner is served, Brian Lerkins will wrap up our evening with a 1 hour CEU.
Brian Lerkins, of Victoria + Albert, will be presenting a course, Minimal Space Design, to help learners understand the unique and growing challenges of design within limited interior spaces. Learners will gain insights that will lead to strategies of efficient design.
