Meet the Collection: Beauty, Neuroscience, & Architecture with Don Ruggles
October 29 @ 1:00 pm
Free with Museum admission
Join us for an up-close look at the Don Ruggles Collection with creator & architect Don Ruggles, CEO Emeritus of Ruggles Mabe Studio. This program is free with museum admission, but capacity is limited so we highly suggest reserving your tickets online in advance!
The Don Ruggles Collection includes architectural drawings, correspondence, and other business records pertaining to Don’s work across Colorado, the United States, and beyond during his 50+ year career. Don will provide a unique glimpse into several of his design projects that led to his groundbreaking research on the connection between design, neuroscience, and health. Don is the author of the 2018 book Beauty, Neuroscience & Architecture, which examines how patterns in architecture and design affect our health and well-being. In 2020 this research was adapted into a full-length documentary narrated by Martha Stewart titled Built Beautiful: An Architecture & Neuroscience Love Story, which features over twenty professionals from around the world detailing the important role design plays in our lives.
