A professional degree in architecture

After some thirty-or-so years in the design field, your design guide, Lyle Boatman, now has a Bachelor of Architecture Degree (Magna Cum Laude, 2012) from NewSchool of Architecture + Design, in San Diego, CA. Lyle’s Valedictory Address was at the beautiful, Brutalist, courtyard (above) of the Salk Institute, designed by Louis I. Kahn. Brutalism is an evolution of modernism deploying raw concrete surfaces and simple forms in design. Architectural Brutalism is a variety of Mid-Century Modern architecture, popular from about 1950 through the 70’s. 

Lyle’s thesis work, entitled ARCHITECTURevolution, is a referendum comprised of evolutionary recommendations for wide collaboration in the field of Architecture.
