Kevin Roche

The Dubliner Kevin Roche (1922) arrived in the USA in 1948. In 1950 he joined the office of Saarinen and worked with John Dinkeloo, starting a practice with him on the master's death. The medal of the American Institute of Architects honors the career of this adoptive American, whose talent for creating public spaces is remarkable. The Ford Foundation (1968) is an emblem.
