The Grace Farms Foundation—a faith-based non-profit organization that supports social justice endeavors, the arts, and community initiatives—commissioned the Japanese architecture firm SANAA to design a multipurpose structure dubbed "the River." Set to open in fall 2015, the building will be the firm's first completed project in the United States since winning the Pritzker Prize in 2010. Funding for the $60 million project came from individual gifts.

The "dining and living" room will have a 300-person capacity and features a coffee bar. Views of the surroundings abound through the floor-to-ceiling double-pane glass walls. The panels will be joined by a special spacer that masks the seams.

The 86,000-square-foot structure will hold a 700-person ampitheater, a library, a dining area, communial "living" room, and gym/recreation center. Environmental sensitivity was paramount to Grace Farms and a number of grean features will be incorporated: high-efficiency mechanical, electrical, and lighting systems; energy-efficient glazing; a reflective aluminum roof to reduce heat absorbtion; and water-conservation measures. The building is housed under a continual roof and slopes down a 38-foot grade.

Grace Farms is located in New Canaan, Connecticut, about 4.5 miles north of the Glass House. The 75-acre site was formerly used for agriculture and now it will function as greenspace that's open to the public. The organization sought to create a structure that would help people "experience nature, foster community, explore faith, and pursue [social] justice." To that end, SANAA devised an elegant glass structure that hugs the site's natural topography and wends its way through the meadows like a natural river. The goal was to make the building become a part of the landscape. "It can be at once majestic with gardens and long views, while at the same time very personal with shelter and places for meditation," SANAA wrote in its statement of intent. Olin Studio and Larry Weaner Landscape Associates are working on a plan to enhance the site's natural characteristics.

Eujin: Pasolini and Fassbinder Retrospectives at BAM/PFA

Come September, my second home will be at the Berkeley Art Museum/Pacific Film Archive Theatre. Reason? Film auteurs Pier Paolo Pasolini and Rainer Werner Fassbinder are each being honored with career retrospectives. Pasolini starts from September 20-October 31 with Accattone (1961) and Fassbinder joins in on October 4-29 with Love Is Colder Than Death (1969). Bonus: Some films are newly restored 35mm prints!
