Kurvenarchitektur von Douglas J. Cardinal
Douglas J. Cardinal ist ein kanadischer Architekt, dem eine grosse Kompetenz in Sachen organischer Architektur nachgesagt wird. Mit seinem eigenständigen Design, oft aus kurvigen Linien und Lamellen herauswachsend, hat er einen in Kanada typischen Stil entwickelt. Zu seinen wichtigsten Bauten gehören:
- Canadian Museum of Civilization in Hull, Quebec,
- St. Mary’s Church in Red Deer,
- Grande Prairie Regional College
- Edmonton Space and Sciences Centre
- Government Services Centre in Ponoka
- St. Albert Place
In my profession and in my daily living, I have always maintained that the endeavors of all people should be directed towards a betterment of the human condition. Therefore in my role as planner and architect, as coordinator of technologists, I see a tremendous opportunity to petition the needs of the individual and to reinstate our humanness as the most important element in all our efforts. I have found that by placing the needs of the human being before the systems that modern man has created, we can ensure that man is indeed served by these systems rather than becoming a slave to them. Through several projects undertaken by my firm and myself, I have demonstrated my dedication for working with people and improving the human condition.
