Architect Joe Lobko moderates this free, one-hour look at two selections from the SHIFT2021 Resiliency/Architecture Challenge.

Intern architect Holly Sutton explores how an industrial site can become a sustainable, inhabited landscape that brings renewed life to struggling communities. Through design, her project attempts to integrate large-scale community planning with environmental remediation strategies.

Then, an interdisciplinary team led by architect Gordon Stratford offers a strategy for improved accommodations for essential agriculture workers who provide our communities with food. Their submission focuses on design as a mechanism for achieving a healthy, nurturing, adaptable, and vibrant home-away-from-home for foreign worker communities.

Each of these projects reveals the direct positive impacts that thoughtful and sensitive design can have on communities.
