Peter YiLecture 10/19/2022
4:30 PM, DAAP Room 5401
De Peter Yi has joined the School of Architecture and Interior Design at DAAP as a new tenure-track Assistant Professor. His work finds design agency at the intersection of the social and the formal, from the scale of material details to the scale of the urban environment and beyond. Yi's long term research focuses on alternative models for housing, driven by its relationship to urban and environmental systems, building technologies, and modes of communication. He is the author of Building Subjects, a book that questions the dominant Western narrative on modern housing through the lens of collectively-adapted living structures in China. Currently, he is cultivating a research project called Moving Rooms, a study of the evolving relationship between the private room and urban space through marginalized housing typologies.

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.

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.
