Tune into an insightful discussion in the PA Talks series with Chad Oppenheim, Miami-based architect and founder of Oppenheim Architecture on his prolific works. Oppenheim works have been praised for their ability to transform the prosaic into the poetic. Through passion and sensitivity towards man and nature, Oppenheim creates monumental yet silent architecture that elicits a site’s inherent power.
