This lecture by Amale Andraos, principal of WorkAC and professor and dean emeritus at Columbia GSAPP, focuses on a series of her firm’s projects – such as the Adams Street Library, Brooklyn Public Library’s first new branch to open in more than 20 years – that re-examine architecture’s capacities to actively reshape social and environmental concerns.
Such commissions build on the practice’s focus on public work across scales and contexts, and on innovative approaches to preservation, sustainable systems, and a greater integration of architecture and landscape at the scale of buildings.
