Olivia Poston's architectural perspective is deeply rooted in her upbringing amid the post-industrial landscapes of Tennessee's foothills, where she developed an early fascination with the complex relationship between urban environments and ecology. This formative experience shaped her view of architecture not just as building, but as a lens to explore social, cultural, and environmental systems in flux. Olivia's work bridges research, writing, and editorial practice, focusing on how cities across diverse climates evolve and adapt in response to increasing environmental challenges.
She is particularly drawn to collaborative design strategies that integrate insights from architects, planners, and engineers to foster resilience and equity within the built environment. Her editorial approach prioritizes projects that engage critically with climate risk while maintaining a sense of optimism and possibility. She values content that offers both reflection and practical pathways forward, serving as a platform to highlight innovative responses to the pressing demands of sustainability.
