Feature documentary examining the architectural philosophy of Pritzker Prize winning Irish-American architect Kevin Roche.
Still working at age 94, Roche's architectural philosophy is that "the responsibility of the modern architect is to create a community for a modern society" and has emphasised the importance of bringing nature into the buildings they inhabit. The application of this philosophy is observed in acclaimed buildings such as the Ford Foundation, Oakland Museum and at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art for whom Kevin Roche was their principal architect for over 40 years.
