Description
Regional mobility is a major player in making our communities more accessible, connected, and resilient. But how do airports and air travel fit into this future?
Last year, Austin Bergstrom International Airport (ABIA) reported a record high of annual travellers, with 15.8 million people passing through its gates last year. Planning an airport that makes travel as seamless as possible is necessary as Austin continues to be a hot destination for tourists. ABIA is tackling this challenge head on.

Architecture is not neutral; it either hurts or heals. Architecture has the power to project its values far beyond the building’s walls and into the lives, the consciousness, of communities and people. To acknowledge that architecture has this kind of agency and power is to acknowledge that buildings, and the industry that erects them, are as accountable for social injustices as they are critical levers to improving the lives of the people who use them.
On Friday, September 13, the Center for American Architecture and Design will host Fernando Lara and Liz Mueller, in a dialogue moderated by Sarah Lopez, as the first Friday Lunch Forum of the semester.
Roughly every other Friday during the fall and spring semesters, the Center hosts the Friday Lunch Forum Series, the aim of which is for faculty, staff, and students to meet in an informal atmosphere to debate topics and to share ideas about history, practice, theory, and new directions for architecture. Recordings of each forum will be posted as they become available.
Join Career Services for a discussion and overview of portfolios and work samples to learn how the formats differ and which to use when.
