Authenticity & Historic Design in Architectural Millwork, with Brent Hull

Please join the ICAA Southern California in welcoming master millwork expert Brent Hull, for a lecture on February 26, 2026. Brent will examine the evolution of American architectural mouldings from 1740 to 1950, tracing the stylistic and functional shifts that accompanied the transition from pre-industrial hand-crafted techniques to mechanized production. Brent provides a framework for identifying period-specific profiles and understanding the design logic that shaped moulding development across two centuries of American building tradition. Participants will gain practical knowledge for making informed specification decisions for restoration and classical new build projects.

Brent Hull is an award-winning master builder and expert in historically accurate architectural millwork and moldings. For over thirty years his craftsmanship has enhanced nationally registered properties and homes across the country. Hull honed his expertise at Boston’s North Bennet Street School where he trained in the art of traditional building and historic preservation prior to founding Hull Millwork & Hull Homes in Fort Worth, Texas. When Brent is not working with his teams, speaking or consulting about how to build better and more beautifully, he enjoys reading and writing about historic architecture. He has authored five books on historic millwork; his most recent book released this spring, Millwork: The Design and Manufacturing of Historic Millwork from 1740-1950.
