In the second installment of our Art + Architecture series (you can view part one here), Archipelago Workshop’s photographer Kurt Jordan celebrates the makers who are bringing our Surfrider Beach project to life. The journey from paper plans to realized structure involves precision, skill, patience, creativity and flow, all of which Kurt manages to capture in the images below.

Kurt’s formal education in fine art, his passion for making things by hand, and his broad world view gained from having visited much of it by sailboat are all evident in his architectural photography, as is his awareness that buildings are ultimately defined by those who inhabit them.  To view more of his work see our Projects page or visit his website: Kurt Jordan Photography.
