On May 31, 2023, the ICAA celebrated the release of the first volume of the ICAA's republication of the acclaimed Lutyens Memorial Volumes with a lecture delivered by David Frazer Lewis, Associate Professor of Architectural History at the University of Oxford. His talk explores the seldom-told story of the genesis of the Memorial Volumes, amidst the austerity, rationing, and ascendant modernism of postwar Britain. The presentation, held in partnership with Lutyens Trust America, traces the Volumes' influence in Britain and the United States through the course of the twentieth century, and the way that their reprinting in the 1980s and now in the 2020s, has allowed Lutyens to remain an inspiration to many architects today.

The ICAA holds two drawing tours each year, one international and one in the US. This year’s domestic program took place in Newport, Rhode Island, May 18-21. The program was led by Stephen Chrisman, Partner at Ferguson & Shamamian Architects, and ICAA Fellow, and Tommy Vince, Project Designer at David M. Schwartz Architects. Newport was selected this year as an ideal location to study a sophisticated range of American architecture, with outstanding examples of late seventeenth through eighteenth century colonial architecture; the American Shingle Style of the late nineteenth century; and the so-called “cottages”—large stone country houses based on European Renaissance villas and palazzo—all within short walking distances.
The Christopher H. Browne Drawing Tours honor the generosity, leadership, and legacy of the Institute of Classical Architecture & Art’s late Trustee, Mr. Christopher H. Browne.

The Institute of Classical Architecture & Art (ICAA) is proud to present Bunny Williams - Not a House but a Home. In this film the legendary designer, permanently named to Architectural Digest’s AD100 Hall of Fame, takes viewers inside her Manhattan apartment, Connecticut home and gardens, and various projects, offering insights into her process and her inspirations and sharing the practical lessons and advice that inform her projects. Along the way she recounts the story of her career, accompanied by exclusive photographs and newly filmed scenes of beautiful homes and gardens ranging from grand estates to modest clapboard houses.
This film was made possible by the estate of Christopher H. Browne and the Orville Gordon Browne Foundation.

On April 26, 2023, the ICAA was pleased to welcome the award-winning landscape architect and author Janice Parker for a talk on garden rooms. From peristyle gardens and rose parterres to Hidcote Manor and beyond, her presentation explores the relationship between garden rooms, the landscape, and the architecture they surround. Garden designers discussed in this lecture include icons of the field such as Gertrude Jekyll, Ellen Biddle Shipman, Lawrence Johnston, Annette Hoyt Flanders, and Janice's mentor, John Brookes.
Presented as part of the Bunny Mellon Curricula at the Institute of Classical Architecture & Art. The ICAA is very grateful to the Gerard B. Lambert Foundation for its generous support of this program, along with the Continuing Education and Public Programs Sponsor Charlotte Moss, and the Curricula's Lead Sponsor Hollander Design Landscape Architects.
