How We See Now

Billie Faircloth—architect, educator, partner, and research director of KieranTimberlake—will discuss the daily actions and diverse projects of her firm, an architectural practice 30 years in the making, committed to empowering designers and clients through inquiry.

This event is part of the 'Hindsight is 20/20' public programming series at the Daniels Faculty.

Over the past two decades of practice, landscape architect Thomas Woltz has forged a body of work that integrates the beauty and function of built forms with an understanding of complex biological systems and restoration ecology. As principal of Nelson Byrd Woltz Landscape Architects, he has infused narratives of the land into the places where people live, work, and play, engendering stewardship and inspiring connections between people and the natural world.
