The Daily Bruin

Interested in architecture? Join us this Monday, March 19, as the founder of an architectural firm, Otto Lundberg, speaks at Art Talk at the Chehalem Cultural Center (415 E. Sheridan St.). The free presentation runs from 6 to 7 p.m.

Lundberg will speak about his firm and the steps it took to create it. Lundberg Design is an 18-person architectural firm serving clients throughout the U.S. While the core of the practice is architectural, the firm is  committed to providing high-end, modern design at many levels. Lundberg Design’s signature style tends to be characterized by sculptural form, simply and elegantly executed, with a strong belief in the importance of carefully thought-out details.

Hope to see you there! Food and drink will be provided!
