Congratulations to the 2023 AIA Houston Design Award Winner in the Greater Than > 50K SF Category: Texas A&M University – Southside Recreation Center.
The flagship campus of Texas A&M boasts one of the largest student bodies in the country, with more than 66,800 students. To ensure fitness and wellness is easily accessible to all of its students, the university selected SmithGroup to design a new satellite recreation facility for the Southside area of the College Station campus.
The 63,000-square-foot building blends elegantly with the site and the campus vernacular. An existing row of live oaks was protected to frame the grand entry plaza. A large overhang on the south and west facades further protects the glazing and provides shaded exterior space. As a result, occupants enjoy abundant natural light and pleasing views.
Inside, the design is smart in its simplicity. A central spine with the lobby and support services anchors two high-bay fitness areas. The south bay is devoted to strength and conditioning. A slam wall and functional floor workout area occupy one end, where full-height windows afford pleasing daylight and views of the adjacent university golf course. The south bay also provides access to a large covered outdoor workout terrace.
The other high bay on the building’s north side is used for two multi-purpose sports courts. Adjacent outdoor space features two volleyball courts and another exterior activity zone. The building’s central spine includes a mezzanine with cardio equipment and an exercise studio, a bouldering wall, locker rooms and support services. Contractor: Manhattan Construction Company Structural Engineer: JQ Infrastructure Civil Engineer: Gessner Engineering

Our architectural photography pieces will leave you in a dreamy state of mind...come enter into Italy for a piece of heaven, featuring an exquisite night-time architectural powerplant landmark photo called 'Inside the Tower in Tuscany, Italy' by Italian photographer Fabio Sartori. -Writing and Photo Editing by our very own Photo Editor @ari.adams.photo Ari Adams, Musée Magazine Congratulations to Fabio for making it into THE ARCHITECTURAL PHOTOGRAPHY AWARDS 2022 SHORTLIST! APA 2022 Interiors Shortlist: Inside the Tower, Geothermal Power Plant, in Monterotondo Marittimo, Tuscany, Italy by photographer Fabio Sartori. Now in its tenth year, the Architectural Photography Awards committee released its 2022 shortlist of photographs on October 31st. Highlighting four photographs in each of six categories, the images overwhelmingly emphasize the ultra-modernized world that we live in and are headed further towards. Consisting of a total of six categories, the first five categories—Exteriors, Interiors, Sense of Place, Buildings in Use, and Mobile—focus on bridges as an overarching theme as interpreted by the photographers. Meanwhile, the Portfolio category focuses on transportation hubs, featuring images that focus heavily on modernist airports and train stations in Turkey and China. All of the shortlisted images will be exhibited in Lisbon, Portugal at the World Architecture Festival from November 30th - December 2nd, after which the winners of this year’s awards will be announced.

Rosehill Mausoleum, Chicago
The mausoleum features a rotunda with relief panels of the four seasons by Leon Hermant, sculptor
Tumblr media

Background:
Rosehill Cemetery, in northwest Chicago, is the city's largest and oldest cemetery, dating back to 1859, and contains at least 200,000 grave sites in a 350-acre garden setting.
Dedicated in 1914, the cemetery's Rosehill Mausoleum was designed by architect Sidney Lovell, who is interred within. The interior is almost entirely of marble, with the floors composed of Italian Carrara marble. Several later additions would be made to the building; there were six additions made after 1913, and a final one in 1975.
Leon Hermant (1866–1936) was an American sculptor best known for his architectural sculpture. Hermant was born in France, educated in Europe and came to America in 1904 to work on the French Pavilion at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition in St. Louis, Missouri.
For most of his career he was based in Chicago, working mostly in the American midwest, and frequently with a partner Carl Beil.
From 1904, when they met in St. Louis, until 1927, Hermant and Beil were partners at their Sculpture Studio at 21 East Pearson Street in Chicago.  Leon was the Artist, Carl, the "Executioner."  Hermant continued his art after Beil's death in 1927, receiving a major commission for the Indiana State Library in 1934. Hermant exhibited at the Art Institute of Chicago in the 1920s, and would complete many sculptures throughout the U.S. [Chicago Sculpture in the Loop]
In 1928 Hermant was awarded the Légion d'honneur by the French government for his Louis Pasteur Monument in Grant Park, Chicago.

In the 1929 Fourth Addition to Rosehill Mausoleum, a marble rotunda features relief panels of the four seasons executed by Hermant, placed between engaged marble columns. Each panel contains a brief quote below, appropriate to the season. Leon Hermant's signature appears on the bottom right of only one panel, Winter.
The yellowish lighting within the rotunda is so dim that photography is difficult, and one strains to appreciate the quality of the sculptures. I'd admired these panels before, but it was thanks to some thorough research by Jim Craig of Under Every Tombstone that I was alerted to their sculptor's identity.

Inscriptions at the base of the four panels:

SPRING
Hail bounteous May, that dost inspire
Mirth, and youth and warm desire
Hill and dale dost boast thy blessing
This we salute thee with our early song
and welcome and wishe thee long.
                                          Milton.
Tumblr media
SUMMER
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
…So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
                                             Shakespeare
Tumblr media
AUTUMN
There is no death! The stars go down
To rise upon some other shore.
And bright in heaven's jeweled crown
They shine for evermore.
…For all the universe is life…
There are no dead."
                                       Maeterlink
Tumblr media
WINTER
When once our heavenly souls shall climb
Then all earthly grossness quit.
Attired with stars we shall forever sit
Triumphing over death and change and thee
O time!
                                       -Milton-
