Description

In this design research seminar, we will be immersed in the growing discourse on the retrofitting of suburbia. We will examine the excessive, wasteful, sprawling-and-now-failing real estate products of the long period of mass suburbanization that spans from the second half of the 20th century to today. This is a design research seminar; the ambition is to prepare graphics suitable for publication.
