Last week the name Bruce Goff was one mentioned when looking at Javier Senosiain. And so, today let’s take a look at his work. Goff (1904-1982) was an American architect. Also working in the organic style, this time we add the qualifiers eclectic and flamboyant. Self-taught, he befriended Frank Lloyd Wright and Louis Sullivan, both encouraged him to work with Ruth, Endacott and Ruth rather than enroll in Massachusetts Institute of Technology where they feared his creativity would be stifled.
His creation, with high-school art teacher Adah Robinson, of the Boston Avenue Methodist Church is considered one of the finest examples of Art Deco architecture in the United States.
One of the first buildings he designed, at the age of 14, 1401 South Quaker Street, was added to the National Register of Historic Places.
