Rock Creek House is featured in this month’s issue of Arketipo. Laura Malighetti writes: “Il processo di ripensamento dell’edificio coinvolge in modo radicale proprio questi ultimi “mantenendo il fantasma dell’ordine esistente” […] Le aperture originarie, infatti, subisscono allargamenti, restringimenti e slittamenti che trasformano le facciate in una composizione astratta e irregolare di forature.”

Juliet Chun and Zhanina Boyadzhieva of Boston-based Girl Uninterrupted interviewed Katie on her views of the design profession and advice to young female designers.

“Of my female friends in my class, there are few that are still conventionally practicing. Some are doing interesting things in other fields. I do not know that you can attribute all of the attrition to the challenges of having a family, but if one did not get a solid few years before having kids, there could be little motivation to come back – long hours, low pay. It is difficult for women, no question.”

“The relationship between Principal Hall and its neighbouring spaces provides an example of what is perhaps NADAAA’s greatest contribution to this spectacular project: their remarkably deft and judicious ability to orchestrate frequent and meaningful changes in scale […] a succession of spaces, each correctly calibrated for its own needs, yet arranged so as to produce vivid sectional shifts.”
