Box Broken Open: The Architecture of Ted Pappas

Jacksonville architect Ted Pappas designs a building to be of its site, not on it. He brings the outside inside. Much of his work focuses on spaces of contemplation such as libraries and churches. Influenced by Frank Lloyd Wright, as well as Mid-Century Modern architects and proponents of Brutalism, Pappas often unites ancient tradition with contemporary vision. In addition to creating innovative new buildings, Ted Pappas has repurposed or rehabilitated historic structures in Jacksonville's urban core including the oldest historically black college in Florida, the state's oldest musical organization, the city's oldest library, oldest private club building, oldest school building, and oldest church structure.
