Summary

Since 1959 architect Dan Duckham has quietly but deliberately created a significant oeuvre of natural organic architecture that is appropriate to its time and place while fulfilling its purpose. The majority of his work was created for clients in the tropical region of the Fort Lauderdale / Broward County area of South Florida. Later in his career, after moving to the mountains of western North Carolina, his work continued to evolve while retaining its overriding consistency of originality, clarity, craft, and quality. This architectural monograph presents the creative life work of Dan Duckham, which spans more than 65 years during which he designed over five hundred projects.

Author Biography

Randolph C. Henning, a retired architect living in North Carolina, has written four books on architecture, authored numerous articles published in a wide variety of journals, and has lectured widely on Frank Lloyd Wright, organic architecture, and the architects who practiced an architecture based upon the organic philosophy that was planted by Louis Sullivan and germinated by Wright. Henning was one of the founding officers of Organic Architecture and Design Archives, Inc., a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that advocates for the protection and celebration of the legacy of organic architecture and design by honoring its past, celebrating its present, and encouraging its future through the preservation of original design materials and education with publications, events, and exhibitions.
