July RFC Historic House Tour & Lecture- Living/Working: 6 Home/Studios of Antonin & Noémi Raymond
House Tour of the Raymond Farm
1:00 PM- 2:30 PM
RFC co-director John DeFazio AIA will lead a historic tour of the Raymond Farm House. 120 acres currently make up the Raymond Farm, which were purchased by Antonin and Noémi Raymond in 1938. The Raymonds were attracted to the property due to the sturdy construction of both the bank barn and Quaker farmhouse. Within a few years, the Raymonds had a bustling modern farm, which also served as an atelier where architects and artists came to hone their craft.
Lecture: Living/Working: 6 Home/Studios of Antonin & Noémi Raymond
2:45 PM- 4:00 PM
Living/Working will trace the development of the Raymond’s unique style of Modern architecture design through the houses they designed for themselves, including the Raymond Farmhouse. Each Raymond house is a landmark in their contribution to the development of Modern Architecture in Japan, and remain today as an inspiration for a holistic, integrated approach to architecture, art, work and life.
