Selected research projects and architecture exploring the role of
design within complex social, political and environmental
conditions Toshiko Mori is a New York-based architect and Professor
in the Practice of Architecture at the Harvard University Graduate
School of Design for many years. As a long-time member of the World
Economic Forum's Global Agenda Council on the Future of Cities,
Mori led research and inquiry into sustainable architecture,
enhancing cities' livability, and creating efficient urban
services. Mori is also on the board of Dassault Systems, a company
connecting technology to environment and life science. And she has
founded the platform VisionArc, a think tank dedicated to exploring
the role of design within complex social and environmental issues.
This book will focus on TMA's projects based on research, and the
impact of socially valuable projects to society. The book will
illustrate how the observation of the architect operates as opposed
to how the imagination of the architect manifests itself. Different
chapters in the book are describing various ways of approaching the
task of observation. Seven chapters are divided into specific
projects and provide a look at the hidden thought processes that
can take place behind the ideas, solutions, and physical
manifestations or architecture. Presented projects include the
Portable Concert Hall, called Paracoustica, which is an ongoing
nonprofit work to come up with an affordable and sharable concert
hall among many constituents in remote and underserved community;
the Novartis Institutes for BioMedical Research focusing on
socialization among scientists as a new model of work that promotes
further discovery and teamwork. And i.e. the research on the role
of libraries in the future using the example of the Brooklyn Public
Library Central Branch. Another chapter is dedicated to the
vernacular typology development in Senegal with the Albers
Foundation, and the research on social spaces for collaborative
educational environments.
