Palaces for the People: The Boston Public Library, Boston, M.A.

Dr. John Ochsendorf explores the Guastavino tiling at the Boston Public Library, a project considered to be the seminal work by the Guastavino Company. Dr. John Ochsendorf, professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering and Architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and author of Guastavino Vaulting: The Art of Structural Tile (Princeton Architectural Press, 2010), discusses the unique and revolutionary craftsmanship and design that made Rafeal Guastavino Sr. one of the most influential architectural craftsman of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The exhibition "Palaces for the People: Guastavino and America's Great Public Spaces" is now on view at the National Building Museum through January 20, 2014. http://www.nbm.org/exhibitions-collec...
