2021: Cora Rice's 1983 Cookbook
In March 2019, Our State Magazine featured 60 pages on Modernist houses across North Carolina:
The Marvelous Mr. Modern: George Smart set out to save a
historic, but often overlooked, architectural style in North Carolina. He's rallied
folks to the cause of Mayberry Modernism.
The
Four Elements of a Modern Home: An acclaimed North Carolina architect
picks four homes whose distinctive features — from sleek rooflines to dramatic
windows — illustrate the mid-century modern aesthetic.
The Warmth of
Glass & Stone: Growing up in a modernist masterpiece taught
two sisters that a house is far more than a home — it's a feeling.
The Ranch Revival: In Charlotte, a broker and a home designer
have come up with a new twist on a classic design. It doesn't fit in with today's
trends. And that's the point.
The Urban
Loft: For architect Adam Sebastian, a childhood spent building
forts and tree houses in Forsyth County honed the design skills that he used to
create a home high above the treetops.
The Farmhouse:
A menagerie of animals — along with their human keepers — delight in
a beautifully and sustainably designed life on the farm.
The Beach
House: Maritime relics, nautical touches, and an utterly modern
design merge in an island home that's both historic and contemporary.
The Mountain Retreat: Three retired friends from Chicago threw
caution to the mountain wind and built a sleek and sophisticated home for two households.
Blueprint For A Movement: A tenacious architect with a lofty
goal turned North Carolina State University into a powerhouse of modernist design.

The NCSU School of Design Student Publication was established to honor the memory of Matthew Nowicki, the first head of the architecture program under Henry Kamphoefner at NC State University's School of Design. The publications quickly grew to encompass all of the school's design disciplines, not just architecture. Between 1950 and 1985, there were 58 issues. The numbers refer to volumes and issues, so 9-2 is Volume 9, Number 2.
1-2, 1-3, 2-1, 2-2, 2-3, 3-2, 3-3, 4-1, 4-2, 4-3, 5-1, 5-2, 5-3, 6-1, 6-2, 6-3, 7-1, 7-2, 7-3, 8-1, 8-2, 8-3, 9-1, 9-2, 10-1, 10-2, 11-1, 11-2, 12-1, 12-2, 13-1, 13-2,14-1, 14-2, 14-3, 14-4, 14-5, 15-2, 17-1, 17-2, 18, 19-1, 19-2, 20-2, 21-1, 21-2, 23, 23a, 25, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, Index 1951-1977
