Nowness #CuratedBy: Designed to Last
Marcel Breuer, John Lautner, Peter Cohen, and more.
Back when I originally started Designed to Last in 2020, I never really thought it would grow into anything beyond a personal project, but nearly 5 years later here we are.
There are many publications that have inspired Designed to Last, but one of my favourites has always been Nowness. Things recently came full circle, when I was asked to work on a guest piece for their series #CuratedBy.
For the latest edition of #CuratedBy, I worked with Nowness to share a diverse range of 10 design and archive references from the past few years of Designed to Last.

2. Bonaventure Hotel by John Portman in Los Angeles, California (1976)
