Global Mini-Symposium
New Conceptions: Sustainable Organic Architecture
January 16, 2021 at 1 p.m.
Using Frank Lloyd Wright’s philosophy of organic architecture as a starting point for contemporary discussions, this 90-minute virtual mini-symposium seeks to explore sustainability through the lens of what might be considered organic.
By bringing together leading practitioners, educators, scholars, and students, we hope to advance more comprehensive and affective theories and practices that will secure an enduring future for the planet while envisioning a built environment that nurtures and ennobles the human condition.
