Foreman Seeley Fountain buildings are like
my grandchildren. They are all my favorites. However, a very worthwhile non-FSF
building that I really like is the Gwinnett Environmental and Heritage
Center. It is a LEED Gold Certified
building whose purpose is to provide an educational facility to educate the
public, especially children, highlighting the environmental heritage of
Gwinnett County. The architecture is pretty cool, too.
JENNIFER (College Intern):
The Architecture
building at KSU (Marietta Campus). I am
currently attending Kennesaw State University, where this building is
located. I have interacted with this
building many times. It is by far my
favorite building on campus since it is the one with the most dynamic design,
in regards to the inside and outside. Every floor & every room has a
different layout.
LISA (Office Manager):
My favorite piece of architecture in
Georgia is the High Museum of Art.
Originally founded in 1905 as the Atlanta Art Association, the High
Museum of Art received its first permanent home in 1926, when Mrs. Joseph M.
High donated her family’s residence on Peachtree Street. In 1955 the Museum
moved to a new brick structure adjacent to the original High house. When the
Atlanta Memorial Arts Center opened in 1968, the High Museum of Art was at its
center. The High is the leading art
museum in the Southeastern U.S. With more than 15,000 works of art in its
permanent collection, the High has an extensive anthology of 19th- and
20th-century American and decorative art; significant holdings of European
paintings; a growing collection of African American art; and burgeoning
collections of modern and contemporary art, photography, folk art and African
art. The High is also dedicated to supporting and collecting works by Southern
artists.
