Robert Donaldson Biografía y Hechos

Donaldson and Meier fue un estudio de arquitectura con sede en Detroit. Fundada en 1880 por John M. Donaldson (1854-1941) y Henry J. Meier (1858-1917), la empresa produjo un gran y variado número de encargos en Detroit y el sureste de Míchigan. Donaldson, el diseñador principal de la asociación desde el punto de vista del diseño, nació en Stirling, Escocia y emigró a Detroit a una edad temprana. Regresó a Europa donde estudió en la Academia de Arte de Múnich, Alemania, y en la École des Beaux-Arts de París, Francia.[1]​ Historia Los primeros diseños de la firma, como la Iglesia Unitaria Universalista en Ann Arbor, eran frecuentemente de estilo románico richardsoniano. Algunas obras de este periodo son la Primera Iglesia Unitaria de Detroit (1889-1890), la Casa de Julius T. Melchers (1897) y el Union Trust Building (hacia 1897). En sus obras del siglo XX predominan los diseños neoclásicos y neorrenacentistas, como en el Penobscot Building (1905), el Savoyard Centre, (1914) y la Iglesia del Santísimo Redentor (1921). Como ocurre con muchas otras empresas de arquitectura cuya longevidad dura más que el estilo de la época, su producción cambió con los tiempos. Sus últimos edificios, como el David Stott Building, eran del género art déco.[2]​ Tras la muerte de Meier el 25 de enero de 1917, su hijo Harry W. Meier continuó trabajando en sociedad con J.M. Donaldson hasta 1937.[3]​ Como la mayoría de los arquitectos prominentes en Detroit durante las décadas de 1920 y 1930, Donaldson y Meier emplearon al escultor Lee Lawrie para producir un panel para Beaumont Tower y contrataron a Corrado Parducci para crear esculturas para muchos de sus otros edificios.
