When noted collectors and art patrons Frederick and Jan Mayer selected Jim Olson of the Seattle-based firm Olson Sundberg Kundig Allen to design their home – the first single-family residence in downtown Denver, Colorado in over 100 years – they were expecting more than a residence. In "RedHOUSE: Architecture for Art," gallery visitors will easily see the link between form and function.
