Urban Jupena

Urban Jupena has always thought that the people of Detroit were fortunate to have Saarinen’s architectural wonder, the complex of schools and museums known as “Cranbrook,” in the area. Those familiar with Cranbrook and its history understand that at the same time these buildings were being built, Saarinen chose and commissioned artists to design and make the furniture, rugs, wall hangings and other art objects that would complement the architecture.
