Neighborhoods Of Designed Engagement Systems (NODES) 


Congratulations to Anca Matyiku, School of Architecture and Interior Design, and D.J. Trischler, new faculty at the School of Design for receiving the DAAP Research CDRI funding award for Fall 2022. The NODES project is a collaboration between the Cincinnati Public Library and DAAP that expands the library’s digital resources beyond the walls of its branches and into surrounding communities. 

The inaugural NODE location is St. Lawrence Square, a parklet in East Price Hill. The NODE has had a presence in the space in partnership with Square’s owner, Price Hill Will, beginning in early 2022 via a series of low-fi and online public engagements as a co-creative method(s) for the next steps of the project.

Peter Yi

Lecture 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.

Jennifer Bonner

Lecture 10/26/2022
4:30 PM, DAAP Room 5401


Jennifer Bonner is an Associate Professor of Architecture at Harvard University Graduate School of Design. Bonner founded MALL in 2009, a creative practice that stands for Mass Architectural Loopty Loops or Maximum Arches with Limited Liability—an acronym with built-in flexibility.
Born in Alabama, Bonner is a recipient of the Architectural League Prize for Young Architects + Designers, Emerging Voices Award (AIA/ Young Architects Forum), Progressive Architecture (P/A) Award and Next Progressives (Architect Magazine). Her creative work has been published in architectural trade publications including Architectural Review, Metropolis, Gray, Azure and Wallpaper.  
Kiel Moe

Lecture 11/02/2022
4:30 PM, DAAP Room 5401


Kiel Moe is a registered practicing architect. 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
