Series:
Date Recorded: April 17, 2012
Duration: 00:03:55
The National Building Museum presents House & Home, a kaleidoscopic array of photographs, objects, models, and films that takes us on a tour of houses both familiar and surprising, through past and present, challenging our ideas about what it means to be at home in America. In this video Peter Rivers, Historic Building Curator at Historic St. Mary's City, explains the Post and Girt wall section he built for the exhibition. The exhibition also features sample wall sections of adobe brick and balloon framing. Visit House & Home.
