"Gregory Wittkopp"
Gregory Wittkopp is Director of the Cranbrook Art Museum and is responsible for shaping the mission and programs of Michigan's leading cultural institution. Gregory is also the noted author of Saarinen House. The home of Finnish-American architect and designer Eliel Saarinen and textile designer Loja Saarinen at Cranbrook Academy of Art, the graduate school in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, is an important 1920s American house and the site of a dramatic garden. This book documents the history and diverse design elements of the house and garden, which have been recently restored. The house is Saarinen's expression of his belief that life and art are inextricably bound within a framework that encompasses all realms of design.
