Architecture & Design Film Festival, Oct 17 – NYC
PRICKLY MOUNTAIN AND MY DESIGN BUILD LIFE, directed by Allie Rood, takes us to Warren, Vermont—a remarkable small town with more architects and designers per capita than anywhere else in the USA. Warren became an architect’s haven in the 1960s, when a group of Yale-trained architects settled there, embracing collaboration and hands-on craftsmanship over the corporate world of their contemporaries.
Rood grew up in this vibrant environment and offers an insider’s perspective on a place where design is not just a profession, but a way of life. The film celebrates the freedom, spontaneity, and deep sense of connection that come from choosing to live in a place that privileges creativity. This is a story about community, values, and the radical act of designing the way we live, work, and grow together. Ticket info here.
PRICKLY MOUNTAIN AND MY DESIGN BUILD LIFE is fiscally-sponsored by WIFV.
