Steven Holl is a tenured Professor at Columbia University's Graduate School of Architecture and Planning. Education: University of Washington, graduated 1970 Background to the Architect: Holl was born in Bremerton, Washington, United States of America in 1947 Steven Holl Architects set up in New York in 1976 Teaching Position: Columbia University 1981- Awards: Time Magazine, 2001 - 'America's Best Architect' RIBA International Award 2007 - Swiss Embassy + University of Iowa Building European Hotel Design Award 2006 - Loisium Hotel & Spa Comment on a recent Steven Holl building: The Simmons Hall building took a regular grid and punctured it with organic voids that added dynamism both to the interiors and to the facade. Colour is a key element in the aesthetic too. For me it reminds me of the postmodern Miami slab block building by Architectonic (?) which punctured slots - rectilinear though - in the regular facade fenestration grid and even included a palm tree in the largest void.
