Bing Sheldon, FAIA, Principle, Chairman & Founder of SERA Architects, takes us on a personal tour of The Quimby House: The residence he designed, built and raised his family in for the past 45 years. A true mid-century and sustainable architect in every sense, Bing graduated from the Harvard school of Architecture in 1961. He then moved to Copenhagen to spend two years working for his mentor. During that period he adopted the minimalistic and community based Scandinavian Culture as his own. In 1964 he returned to the United States where he would settle in Portland, Oregon. In 1968, SERA was founded as an architectural firm where he could put his life experiences into professional practice; hereby producing thoughtful designs for clientele seeking re-adaptation in existing façades or new structures that conceptually made sense. Over the past 40+ years his influence has been weaved throughout Portland, essentially creating the backdrop that would inspire not only the region, but the industry as a whole. It is in this house, and within this film, where the stories are told, and this is only the beginning.... Please also visit - http://www.patternintegrity.com - for more!
