Gene Kaufman has designed over $1B of hotels in New York City. In 2011, his firm Gene Kaufman Architect joined forces with the esteemed Modernist architecture firm Gwathmey Siegel; the result is Gwathmey Siegel Kaufman & Associates Architects. Gene talks about his attempt to save a building you can’t check into for the night, the Goshen government complex designed by Paul Rudolph.
Joe King is an architect and contractor practicing in Bradenton FL. With Christopher Domin, he is co-author of the book Rudolph: The Florida Houses. He has owned several Rudolph houses and is re-creating Rudolph's famous Walker Guest House for a national tour.
Noah Goldstein, the ark-itect! Why you don't want to see Joe King coming down the driveway with a crowbar! And those damned hotel air conditioners that blow the curtains up!
