As part of a team of faculty and students, I was selected to represent Sci-Arc from the perspective of a professional architect and post-graduate.

With historians, professors and administrators from Claremont and Sci-Arc, we worked together to investigate the history of transformative spaces in research and education such as MIT’s Building 20, Black Mountain College, Xerox Park, London Architectural Association and the Stanford D Lab.

Using our experience, research, and expertise, we formulated a guide for the university to issue its next large RFP for a new student center to move beyond the shortcomings of previous proposals and help develop a more ambitious and self-aware document.
