Correlations: Life+Work is a stunning monograph on multigenerational architecture studio Bentel & Bentel, highlighting their prominent buildings and interiors as well as each of the partners' personal histories, working methods, and artistic pursuits. Peter Bentel ’83, a dual major in Visual Arts and Architecture and recipient of the Francis Lemoyne Page Visual Arts Award, is one of the studio’s three partners.

Bentel & Bentel has been led for over fifty years by two generations - men and women - of one family. The interweaving of their experiences, lifestyles, and personal philosophies has produced a supremely elegant series of works including institutional buildings, restaurants, hotels, and residences. The firm’s designs are equally notable for their thoughtful relationships to the natural and built contexts they occupy, the communities in which they stand, and the experiences of their intended users. Bentel & Bentel's accomplishments reflect not only its cumulative design experience, but the insights the partners bring to their work from a variety of related activities: painting, sculpture, dance, design of furnishings, architectural history, and education.

Reflecting the lives and accomplishments of the studio's partners, this richly illustrated monograph consists of three key narratives: Who We Are, What We Do, and Who We Were.
