As the founding partner of Olson Kundig, Jim Olson has explored the aesthetic interplay of art, nature, and architecture, as well as the relationship between light and space, for over fifty years. Though best known for his houses designed for art collectors, he also designs museums, religious spaces, and commercial buildings. His recent work includes Kirkland Museum of Fine and Decorative Art in Denver and the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art at Washington State University.
