Public Architecture: The Art Inside


Curtis Fentress is an internationally known architect who passionately pursues the creation of sustainable and iconic public architecture. His studio focuses on inspired design for people, incorporating context and culture to create one-of-a-kind buildings for clients and users. This monograph spans the 30-year history of this innovative studio, both examining the creative working process and tracing artistic influences from fashion, music, dance, sculpture, fine jewelry and other disciplines. Fentress' portfolio of award-winning designs includes world-class airports, museums, convention centers, courthouses, civic buildings, laboratories, higher education facilities, and office towers. He was born in North Carolina and graduated with honors from North Carolina State University with a Bachelor of Architecture degree. After leaving a position with I.M. Pei, Fentress joined the newly formed firm of Kohn Pedersen Fox, where an office high-rise project brought him to Denver. In 1980, he founded his own firm there, and since then has designed memorable buildings around the world.
