Husband, father, educator, and architect George Yu has passed away after a long and painful battle with cancer. George is survived by his wife, Carole, and his two daughters, Elena and Dara.
George was my mentor and employer for several years, as can say many young architects and designers fortunate enough to cut their teeth in his studio. George made significant contributions to the discourse and culture of design, especially through his post-paperless approach, emphasizing MAKING and BUILDING.
