Historic Modern Architecture in Arkansas
How's that for an oxymoron?
In this episode, I'll discuss the different styles of modern architecture as well as famous architects with ties to Arkansas and examples of those architectural styles from around the state. I'll also touch on why it is so important and so difficult to preserve buildings from this era of construction.
