Real Simple Is Complex: A Tribute to The Work of Mark Hampton, FAIA, by Rene Gonzalez Architect
Date: Saturday, January 16, 2027
Time: 1–2pm
Location: The Wolfsonian–FIU @ 1001 Washington Avenue
The work of Mark Hampton, the architect who transformed The Wolfsonian's historic building into a museum, is deeply rooted in modernist principles, yet looks and feels effortless. That apparent ease was hard-won, built on careful attention to detail, proportion, climate, light, and restraint. In this personal tribute, architect Rene Gonzalez reveals the complexity behind Hampton's seemingly simple architecture.
Organized with Miami Design Preservation League and presented as part of Art Deco Weekend.
