The Vision Tour for architects in Philadelphia was fantastic. Hosted by Synergis, and held at the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaelogy and Anthropology, we enjoyed fantastic presentations while nestled among some great Egyptian relics...(almost a little creepy). My favorite line of the evening was when I was told I could start when the Sphinx went dark! I've never heard that before!
First up is a picture of Phil Bernstein, Autodesk's VP of the Building Solutions Division...he is looking very serious here (notice the cool Sphinx in the background). Phil did a great presentation on Building Information Modeling and how it can help turn your visions into reality.
And here is a pic of the audience of architects...my friend Rick Webber is looking studious there to the right (in the blue).
Our guest speaker was Stephen Kieran of KieranTimberlake Associates and author of the book Refabricating Architecture. All attendees received a copy of his book (and Stephen was kind enough to autograph them).
And last but not least...after the event was over we enjoyed a great cocktail hour among the Egyptian exhibits...amazing (do I look like I am having fun?).
Synergis did a fabulous job arranging this event (thank you!).
