F5: Rustam Mehta Talks About His Favorite Music, Rustication + More
Rustam Mehta is a registered architect, LEED accredited professional, and founding partner of GRT Architects. After studying architectural history at Brown University, he designed exhibitions for The Brooklyn Museum of Art, worked as editorial assistant at Nest Magazine, and also in the studio of artist Polly Apfelbaum. Rustam received a Masters of Architecture at Yale, where he edited the journal Perspecta and taught at Yale College in the history of art and photography. Prior to founding GRT, he worked for eight years at Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects in New Haven. He was the Senior Associate in charge of the Bill and Melinda Gates Computer Science Complex at UT Austin and lead an international team designing a mixed-use complex in Shanghai.
Rustam?s outside interests inform his work ? he spent ten years restoring an Alfa Romeo GTV. Like architecture, it’s work that begs for knowledge of history, love of materials, and the ability to balance aesthetics with technical solutions. In the same workshop, Rustam protoypes architectural hardware and experiments with finishes including electroplating and powder coating. Today, Rustan is joining us for Friday Five!
