A person experiencing homelessness lacks shelter in its most basic form, but solving homelessness takes much more than buildings, and our contemporary moment reveals few problems that design, on its own, can resolve.
The Materials Lab continued the ‘Materializing Design’ series with an in-person demonstration from Maggie Hansen. Maggie Hansen is an assistant professor at the School of Architecture and a landscape designer whose work investigates how ‘care taking’ (of space, of shared histories, of caretakers) serves to maintain and build community. Her work draws on training in architecture, landscape architecture, theater, and contemporary art.
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.

In this lecture I will share the work of the Chair of Being Alive at ETH Zurich along with some projects from Arquitectura Agronomia. New methodologies that are inclusive, rigorous, and transversal are guiding us towards a new approach to design. The adventure is challenging, full of unknown answers that we face with optimism, freedom, and creativity.
