Modern Richmond

The untold story of Modernism in Richmond doesn't just live in lectures and history books. It lives in the buildings themselves.

Modern Richmond invites you on a rare and intimate tour of five properties that tell the full arc of a modernist legacy — beginning with the firm's earliest residential work in the early 1960s, and carrying through to two remarkable properties designed independently by Page Highfill in the 1970s and late 1980s.THE PROPERTIES — IN THE ORDER THEY WERE BUILTThree neighboring homes on Maybeury Road completed before the formal Hyland &amp; Highfill partnership was even established in 1967, an early sign of Page's extraordinary promise as a young architect under Bud's mentorship. One home has special meaning, it was Page's own home, where he and his beloved wife Kate built a life full of family, friends, and faith. Walking through these three side-by-side homes is a rare chance to see a young modernist finding his voice bold, confident, and already fully formed.St. Bartholomew Episcopal Church on Patterson Avenue is one of the most celebrated projects of Page's independent career, this stunning sacred space earned two prestigious design awards one from the Guild of Religious Architects and one from the Virginia State AIA Chapter. It stands as a testament to Page's extraordinary talent and vision as an architect, and powerful proof that the very best of the Hyland &amp; Highfill legacy continued long after their partnership ended.Twenty-four years after the Maybeury Road homes, Page designed a home on Flagstation Road for he and his family, this second personal home is living proof that his passion for modernism never wavered. Two homes built for the same man, a quarter century apart, telling the story of an architect who didn't just build modern architecture, he lived it.
