Seeking to persuade the general public that sustainable, or “green,” design was both beautiful and affordable, this exhibition offered the Glidehouse, a full-scale prefabricated house—living room, dining room, kitchen, and bath—designed by California architect Michelle Kaufman. The house was equipped with on-the-market sustainable furniture, appliances, and decorative objects. The show also featured a materials resource room and a wide selection of models and drawings representing green houses from around the world.

“Activism starts in the Glidehouse…a case study in the welcome wave of domestic architecture: affordable, highly design and factory-built. The airy dwelling also offers visitors an immersion in “green” living, California style.
Linda Hales, Washington Post, May 31, 2006

An inaugural exhibition of the new, Richard Meier-designed Getty Center, this show chronicled in models, photographs, and actual building components the 17-year process of designing and constructing one of the most important arts complexes of the latter part of the 20th century. In addition to Meier’s contribution, the show explored the work of artist Robert Irwin, who designed the Getty Garden, and Thierry Despont, designer of the Museum’s decorative arts galleries.
