Fire is central to the winter experience. The hearth, a symbol for this time of celebration and community, can represent an architectural antidote to the impending dark and cold winter months. It is around fire and hearth that friends and families—even whole communities—gather to cook, share stories, and bond in its warmth and glow.

Walk by the District Architecture Center this holiday season to be warmed by the light of the Wonderland storefront display.

About the Designers

Cooper Jones and Maureen McGee recently moved to DC from San Francisco where Jones worked for Iwamotto Scott Architects and McGee worked for Andrew Mann Architecture. The husband-and-wife team collaborated on several design projects in San Francisco between 2013 – 2014, including two winter storefront installations for Faye’s Video and Espresso Bar in the Mission District.

Excited to be living and working in DC, Cooper now works for Jones & Boer Architects while Maureen works for McGraw Bagnoli Architects.
