Houston: Uncommon Modern is a preservation minded project that documents, analyzes and celebrates our city’s abundance of secondary and tertiary mid-century buildings hidden in full sight.
An exhibit featuring 100+ photos will be on view at Architecture Center Houston November 24 - February 19. Churches, office buildings, business parks, donut shops, schools and gas stations show off the design and materials of these overlooked architectural resources of Houston’s sprawling and often underappreciated cityscape.
