Can buildings heal and promote justice in our divided communities? How can we use design tools to create a healthier community and a more just world? MASS Design Group’s Co-founder and Executive Director Michael Murphy will showcase projects that inquire whether we are missing under-leveraged resources for promoting health, justice, and human dignity. With over 20 projects built or under construction around the globe, MASS has worked to pioneer a practice model that attempts to reinsert architectural agency upstream and for the public benefit.

Speaker:
Michael Murphy, Co-Founder and Executive Director, MASS Design Group; Adjunct Associate Professor, Columbia University GSAPP
