Hosted by the ICAA Southeast Chapter | 5 credits towards the Certificate in Classical Architecture (Mouldings) | 5 AIA CES Learning Units|Elective
Mouldings play a central role in the articulation of exterior and interior architecture. Through careful calibration of scale, and with respect to the function of individual elements within an ensemble, mouldings contribute to the coherence of a composition and help make the individual components of a design intelligible. This course explores the grammar that guides the selection, combination, sequencing, and application of mouldings within an architectural composition. Topics covered will include: formal considerations in the design and use of mouldings; methods of proportioning mouldings with focus on unique aspects related to interior conditions; the enrichment of mouldings through ornament; the character of mouldings associated with various architectural traditions; and an introduction to key references and resources. The class concludes with an opportunity to design a family of moulding profiles for an interior room.
Instructor: Clay Rokicki
Promoted to Principal in 2019, Clay Rokicki first shared his artistic and architectural talents with Historical Concepts in 2005 as a participant in the firm’s summer internship program. After graduating summa cum laude from the University of Notre Dame with a degree in architecture and a concentration in furniture design, he rejoined Historical Concepts’ team of traditionalists in Atlanta and has been here ever since. In addition to leading one of Historical Concepts’ design studios, Clay serves as the Director of Design Enrichment, developing creative learning opportunities to increase team collaboration and enrich the individual skills of our design team members. In 2010, Clay was awarded the J. Neel Reid Fellowship from the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation, enabling him to sketch his way through southern England, a field study experience he credits for refining his understanding of composition, materials, and the harmonious arrangement of buildings to landscape. He is actively involved with the Institute of Classical Architecture & Art as a member the Education Committee for the Southeast Chapter, as well serving on the College of Fellows and teaching various subjects at the national level.
