Architectural Record - November 2020

2020 November

In November 2020, Architectural Record explores new college and university buildings, as well as recent lighting projects. This month’s Continuing Education feature takes a deep dive into wildfire-adapted design. The issue also reports on Katerra’s Catalyst Building. In the news section, read about several important renovations and restorations: Mecanoo’s overhaul of the Mies-designed MLK Library in Washington, D.C., and ongoing work by CO Architects on two Paul R. Williams buildings at UCLA. Finally, don’t miss our roundup of the latest lighting and glazing products.

Check back throughout the month for additional content.
