POSTCARD FROM CHRISTCHURCH Dear ArchitectureWeek, On my first day in Christchurch, New Zealand, I was eager to explore the city's cultural heart.

A TENT ON THE BEACH Residential architect and teacher Marcel Sedletzky was born in Russia but lived most of his professional life in Monterey, California. His style was a blend of high modernism, like that of Marcel Breuer, with the organic fusion of form and site of Frank Lloyd Wright. Sedletzky's houses embody his passion for drama, and his collaborations with his clients were often dramatic as well. — Editor
