Description

Ridgelake Building, 825 Ridge Lake Boulevard, Memphis, Tennessee. Built in 1974. Architects: Walk Jones and Francis Mah. Photographer: Alan Karchmer. © Alan Karchmer.

Combining Brutalist and Miesian concepts, this clean facade reveals no apparent vertical support.

Late Modern Architecture is a refinement of elements from the major movements in that architecture's development. It employs a high level of technology and is marked by the influence of space-age aesthetics.
