Robert Marquis (1977) Part 2 of 201:08:30

Robert Marquis talks in more detail about the St. Francis Square coop housing project in San Francisco. He discusses Liberty Harbor in Jersey City, New Jersey, and various houses he built in Marin County, including a round shaped house in Bolinas, California. During the Q&A Marquis talks about how certain decisions based on limited resources may seem “anti-architectural” because the “environment becomes more important than the architecture.” He states, “architects strongly affect people’s lives for the better … which is different than saying they change society.” Marquis also explains his “Clockwork Orange Test.”
