I can't say enough about Clive Wilkinson. As part of my involvement at IIDA student Center at CCA, I frequently volunteer (or in this case they actually asked me) for events the IIDA Northern California chapter hosts. This summer I volunteered to help with the set up and take down for the IIDA Pioneers in Design Event where Clive Wilkinson was honored for his brilliant interior architecture. He gave a beautiful slide show presentation on his work and following his lecture they had a buffet style reception where fancy food such as risotto, chocolate covered strawberries and champagne were served. We were able to take a break from volunteer duties and schmooze with the other architects and designers that came to the event including Clive Wilkinson! Not only is he talented, but he is humble and down to earth, definitely NOT an arrogant know it all. I pulled some images to share, because his work is too beautiful to go unnoticed. I am struck by his use of color, materiality and organic forms-the spaces are both innovative plus functional!
Proof-we really did meet with Clive!
