Show Notes
Eric Höweler, associate professor in architecture at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design, joins the podcast today to discuss how design fits within contemporary culture, how it can affect behavioral and social norms, and how it can produce a sense of place or create environmental awareness. Besides lectures and teaching, Höweler is a partner at Höweler + Yoon Architecture which has received numerous awards including the Progressive Architecture Award, the Audi Urban Futures Award, the Design Vanguard Award by Architectural Record, the Emerging Voices Award by the Architecture League, as well as several national and local AIA awards and honors.
Learning Objectives:
- Describe how Höweler incorporates the concept of “buildings to behavior” into the design process.
- Explain the design process of the Memorial to Enslaved Laborers at the University of Virginia.
- Discuss how designing The Coolidge theatre expanded the concept of a traditional space into a community center for people who love film.
