The Trend House exhibition (curated by Alena Rieger with assistance from Gordon Katelnikoff) will showcase archival material on the Canadian Trend Houses including the Winnipeg home designed by Walter Katelnikoff of Smith, Carter, Katelnikoff (now Architecture49). The houses were designed as part of an initiative by Western Woods in order to increase the market for their wood products.
