Hello
My name is MarQ Morrison, and I grew up next door to Nils Schweizer and the Schweizer family. So, at a young age I was introduced to MCM architecture.
I’m in the preproduction phases of the first in a series of documentaries on Mid Florida MCM architects and their residential designs. Featuring the Sarasota and Central Florida areas.
The second documentary will be about the post MCM in Florida. The next gen architects and how they incorporated some of the design qualities from the MCM. You are on the list to be interviewed for this.
I’m reaching out for some help getting the word out on my KickStarter Funding Campaign to produce the first film in the series. If you are interested can you help share amongst the community. If you do not feel comfortable doing this can you point me in the right direction for clubs, organizations, groups, foundations, individuals, or lists? ThanQs!
