Edwin Hugh Lundie
About
Edwin Hugh Lundie (October 13, 1886 – January 8, 1972) was an American architect who established his firm in 1917, in downtown Saint Paul, Minnesota. He designed homes, country estates, timber-frame cabins, and public spaces, until his death at age 85. “He consistently drew from the vernacular forms that connected him to his clients’ tastes,” favoring the historical architectural precedents of Norman, Tudor, early Scandinavian, and American colonial. In 1922, he became a member of the American Institute of Architects (AIA), and in 1948, he became Fellow, FAIA, “for his contribution to the advancement of the profession because of his achievement in design.” “Lundie belongs to a generation who came to the profession with a background in the grand manner of the Beaux-Arts but went on to pursue a career devoted to the domestic work – a regionalist in the best sense of the word with work connecting to Scandinavian sources that no doubt resonated with many of his clients because of their ancestry but also seemed admirably suited to the lake country of northern Minnesota.”
