The 2019 LongHouse Winter Benefit will honor James Carpenter and Toshiko Mori with the LongHouse Award for their outstanding achievements in architecture and design. The benefit will take place at the Hearst Tower (300 West 57thstreet, 44thfloor).
Jamie Carpenter cannot be called just an architect – he is a magician who through science and engineering brings light and life to otherwise inanimate buildings. He founded his cross-disciplinary firm in 1979 and is currently applying his unique aesthetic here on an Art Wall at Hudson Yards and in Denmark at the Bornholm Museum.
Nor can Toshiko Mori be referred to as just an architect as she has shared her visions on the highest levels, as the Robert P. Hubbard Professor in the Practice of Architecture at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design; and as a member and former chair of the World Economic Forum’s Global Agenda Council on Design. Her projects span the globe from Brooklyn to Senegal.
The world’s favorite architecture guru Paul Goldberger will be their too, at the very top of the Hearst Tower where we will view New York from three exciting angles as we move from one glorious room to another as the night progresses.
Come to be inspired by these visionaries and break bread with your fellow design enthusiasts at LongHouse.
Honorary Chairs: Leslie and Dale Chihuly, Paul Goldberger, and Lee Skolnick.
