About
Organized jointly by the USC School of Architecture and the USC Fisher Museum of Art, this exhibition examines Paul R. Williams' major contributions to modern multifamily housing. It pairs original archival drawings with newly commissioned works by contemporary artists and architects. Highlighting 35 housing projects from Williams' 60-year career, the show emphasizes the designer's sustained commitment to innovative, dignified solutions for collective living during a period of rapid urbanization. Seven new commissions — by Edgar Arceneaux; Current Interests (Matthew Au and Mira Henry); enFOLD Collective (Dana McKinney White and Megan Echols); Darell W. Fields; David Hartt; Cory Henry; and Amanda Williams — extend Williams' legacy into the present, offering fresh perspectives on his influence on architectural history and modern housing.
