We wish all students and teachers good luck this coming school year! At Pine Grove Middle School in the East Syracuse Minoa Central School District, our goal as a team was to examine the present and look to the future to create learning environments for tomorrow. The exterior of the new entry and media center utilizes a color shifting iridescent metal panel which complements the existing red brick, the large overhang above the main entry and deep vertically oriented windows provide day lighting for the media center while controlling thermal gain throughout the year. This project received the 2016 AIACNY Architecture Citation for Design. . . . . #architecture #design #interiordesign #art #travel #photography #architecturephotography #interior #home #architect #ig #building #archilovers #instagood #homedecor #arquitectura #photooftheday #city #architecturelovers #nature #decor #travelphotography #construction #landscape #picoftheday #arquitetura #designer #luxury #exteriordesign #school

Happy 179th Birthday, King + King Architects’ Founder, Archimedes Russell! Archimedes Russell was born in Andover, Massachusetts on June 13th, 1840. At 19, he moved to Boston. After three years as an architectural apprentice, Russell heard Syracuse was an up and coming city and contacted Rufus Rose, the only architect in the city’s directory, to inquire about a job. In his eagerness, Russell left Boston before receiving a response and he arrived in Syracuse to find Rose had moved to Chicago. In a critical twist of fate, he met another local architect Horatio Nelson White, becoming his apprentice in 1862. The rest, as they say, is history. After working closely with White on the Gridley Building in Hanover Square, Russell left White’s office and set out on his own in 1868. Archimedes could never have imagined that the firm he started as a 28-year-old would endure to become the oldest in New York State and the third oldest in the United States. A prodigious work ethic (Melvin King noted that Russell worked ten-hour days, six days a week) combined with a public spiritedness and inspired mind created not only a thriving firm, but literally helped build the city of Syracuse. . . . . #architecturalhistory #Archimedes #ArchimedesRussell #syracuse #syracusehistory
