He has contributed introductory essays to a score of monographs, and writes regularly for The Architectural Review, Mark, Frame, The Plan and Contract. He worked in London as an editor at The Times and Country Life, before relocating to Washington DC to become program director of the American Film Institute, and later curating Hollywood: Legend and Reality, a Smithsonian exhibition that toured the US and Japan. Michael moved to Los Angeles to resume his writing career, and he lives in a classic Richard Neutra apartment that was home to Charles and Ray Eames in the 1940s. He was named Chevalier de l Ordre des Arts et des Lettres for his services to French culture, and Hon. AIA by the LA Chapter. Zoltan E. Pali, FAIA, who writes the introduction, is the creative energy and driving force behind the [SPF:a]'s award-winning designs. In 1978, Mr. Pali began his architectural career, and 17 years later in 1995 he founded [SPF:a]. He has a degree in design from the University of California Los Angeles, and much experience in the construction industry. Before the founding of [SPF:a], Pali worked for VCA, and Solberg and Lowe Architects, as well as collaborating in the case study Maestro, and was protege of Craig Ellwood and Jerrold E. Lomax. In 1990 Pali joined up with partner Judith Meda Fekete, and five years later formed what is now [SPF:a]. Their award-winning firm has been featured as Architecture Magazine's Home of the Year Award (2003) and was given the AlA National Honor Award [2005] for the design of the Somis Hay Barn. Projects range in size and scope from 5,500-squarefoot private homes to the 300,000-square-foot Getty Villa Museum. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
