Student Trip to Chicago
120 second-year (and some M-Arch 1) students and 9 chaperones departed this past Sunday on busses and headed to Chicago to tour the city's impressive architecture. On their way, they stopped in Columbus, Indiana, home to world-class modernist architecture. Once in Chicago, the itinerary included visiting Frank Lloyd Wright's Robie House, experiencing Chicago's legendary architecture from the river on a boat tour, and touring the showrooms of Knoll and Herman Miller. On the way back, a stop was made to tour the Farnsworth House. Another successful and educational Chicago trip was planned by Professor Melanie Swick!

Lecture 11/02/2022
4:30 PM, DAAP Room 5401
Kiel Moe is a registered practicing architect who graduated from SAID with his B-Arch is 2001. His research and pedagogy focuses on an agenda for design and energy that is at once more ecologically and architecturally ambitious. As such, he focuses on both buildings as manifestations of large scale energy systems as well as overlooked and discrete thermal parameters in buildings that yet have great impact on the power and thermodynamic depth of architecture. This research is the basis for his design research and his design practice. In recognition of his design and research, he was the 2009-10 Gorham P. Stevens Rome Prize Fellow in Architecture as well as the 2012 & 2014 Barbara and Andrew Senchak Fellow MacDowell Colony. He received the 2013 Boston Design Biennial award, the 2011 Architecture League of New York Prize, the 2011 AIA National Young Architect award, and numerous design awards for individual projects from the AIA, North American Wood Design Awards, and Boston Society of Architects, among others.
