STUDIO: Thom Mayne | NOW Institute
In collaboration with policymakers and government partners, Thom Mayne, recipient of the Pritzker Architecture Prize and a distinguished professor at A.UD, will lead the newly formed NOW Institute with director Eui-Sung Yi, building on 10 years of previous research initiatives that span cities across the United States and the world, including Los Angeles, New Orleans, Madrid, Beijing and Port-au-Prince, Haiti. The focus of this studio will be the investigation and application of urban strategies to complex problems in modern, advanced metropolises and informal settlements, encompassing cities affected by the challenges of resilience, culture, sustainability and mobility.
