Sunday Lecture: Robert Hinds and Leland Roth

“The Speculative Houses of Portland Architectural Designer John Yeon”
Oregon Historical Society, Sunday, March 6, 2 PM
This lecture will include a retrospective on Oregon architectural
designer, John Yeon, focusing on his "Speculative House" series
(1938-40). Leland Roth, Professor of Architectural History at the
University of Oregon, will give a lecture on the life and career of one
of Oregon’s most influential architectural designers. The presentation
will highlight the nine “Speculative Houses” which Yeon designed after
completing his internationally acclaimed Watzek House (1937). Featuring
many innovative design elements, the houses helped to refine Yeon’s
technique and to influence the Northwest Regional style of architecture.
Robert Hinds, UO alumnus and owner of one of the Speculative Houses,
which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007,
will introduce the topic. Please call 503.306.5214 to RSVP or RSVP
