Anthro-tecture: realized

 

Over this past summer, I was honored to participate in a summer course and workshop, titled Moving Boundaries: Human Sciences and the Future of Architecture, held in Santiago de Compostela (Galicia, Spain) and Porto (Portugal).

For two intensive weeks we attended classes, workshops, tours, and discussions with an international group of practitioners exploring the impact of the built environment on human health and well-being. During this program, our group which included scientists and architects, historians and philosophers, shared ideas and perspectives, and built lasting relationships with others passionate about human-centered environments.

This experience has reinforced my dedication as an architect and designer to incorporate humanistic research and empathic practices into designs that bolster my clients’ wellness and ability to flourish.
