Teaching

Cities are rapidly warming due to climate change and urbanization, posing significant threats to health and thermal comfort through extreme heat events and urban overheating. Understanding the relationship between microclimate and urban form is essential for designing more livable environments.

In this class, we will explore the complex interactions between rising temperatures, urban infrastructure, and public health through the lens of environmental justice.

The Green Infrastructure Studio aims to develop a design proposal using nature-based solutions to address both site-specific, and broader societal and ecological challenges.
