Brad Lynch, a Chicago architect who designed, homes, condos and the Racine Art Museum, died at 64.
Architect Brad Lynch specialized in clean, modern designs of everything from single-family homes and high-rise condominium units to the Racine Art Museum in Wisconsin.
Lynch grew up in Racine, where as a child he took art classes at the Charles A. Wustum Museum of Fine Arts. He later took an interest in photography.Lynch studied art, art history, engineering and landscape architecture at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, where after getting his degree he worked as a construction and project manager on the restoration of the Herbert and Katherine Jacobs First House in Madison, an early example of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Usonian homes.
Lynch’s output included commercial projects such as mixed-use high-rise buildings, both new and renovated single-family homes, corporate headquarters, film facilities and master plans. The firm won more than 50 major design awards. One of the projects that Lynch was proudest of was designing the Racine Art Museum, which took over a converted bank building. The project, which was completed in 2003, was described by then-Tribune architecture critic Blair Kamin as a “serene, inviting, though occasionally chilly, showcase for contemporary crafts” that provided “an innovative use of structure and materials and the ability to solve functional problems and give those solutions artistic expression.
