The AIA Committee on Design spent the year of 2011 discussing the culture of craft including two hallmark conference s in Seattle and Japan. In this 20 minute dialogue, five architects come together to discuss the value of craft and design in theory and in practice. Featuring: Tom Kundig FAIA, Bob Hull FAIA, Annie Han, Prentis Hale and Roy McMakin. Architects and interested professionals are encouraged to post video responses with a favorite object that embodies craft or host your own dinner dialogue on craft. #SpecialProjects #CommitteeonDesign
