LUCIEN LAGRANGE JUST WANTS TO DESIGN
August 22, 2011

| Legendary architect Lucien Lagrange has been doing design for more than 40 years and he's still not bored. (We get bored with Legos after 40 minutes.) He shuttered his firm in 2010 and then last month joined VOA, where he'll lead the residential design team and continue his work on the residential towers he's known for (like The Elysian Residences, the X/O, and Lincoln Park 2520, currently under construction). Another perk: Lucien will be able to design without having to also manage a business. He likes VOA because of its non-egotistical, open-minded atmosphere. Lucien says even after all these years, he's fascinated with adapting residences to how people live, which has changed a lot since he started in the business. While he's not seeing a lot of new construction lately, Lucien thinks more rental properties and adaptive reuses will start popping up soon. |
