Hello, dear
readers!
I’d like to
thank you all in advance for stopping by, and I hope that at least a few on my
list of remarkable buildings pique your interest as they did mine.

Yountville Town Center
When it came time for an upgrade, the
architects at Siegel and Strain knew just how to design a building that would seamlessly
blend old and new, nature and architecture in the heart of Napa Valley’s wine
country. As a result, the Yountville
Town Center received the 2010 “Savings by Design” award of honor, AIA
California’s highest award.
If I were to spend a day strolling this 1.5 square mile town, I’d hope to catch an event going on at the center, wouldn’t you?
Such a beautiful ceiling! Architecture always fascinates me. Thank you for the virtual tour to a place I haven't been to.
ReplyDeleteThat's what caught my eye as well. Plus, the letter Y ;-)

ReplyDeleteHmmm....
I didn't realize you used that kind of language, dIEDRE.

I was referring to "Cal******a", not "AIA". ;^)
Ha! Not as a rule, my friend ;-) It's a gorgeous building, the name of which begins with the letter Y ;-)
DeleteNice practical looking facility.
