The House Beautiful I: Hermes Mallea
For over four hundred years, Havana was the center of Spanish trade in the western hemisphere. With the expansion of the sugar industry, independence from Spain, and North American investment, Havana became a city of great wealth, great style, and great houses. Join architect and author Hermes Mallea for an exploration of the greatest residences of Havana, celebrating 100 years of creativity, design, and style that made the city "the Paris of the Caribbean." Mallea is an architect and a partner in M(Group), a design firm based in New York. A longtime collector of vintage Cuban photographs and a member of a Cuban-American family, he is the author of the newly published book, "Great Houses of Havana: A Century of Cuban Style."
The illustrated talk will be followed by a reception and book signing.
