Designing the Future with Bruce Mau

On Monday, February 22, H+U+D Colloquium members participated in a special event hosted by Penn Institute for Urban Research (IUR) and PennPraxis in conjunction with the Philadelphia Museum of Art and its exhibition, Work on What You Love: Bruce Mau Rethinking Design (on view through April 3, 2016). At this event, Mau led Penn faculty and students in a workshop setting to apply new ways of thinking to long-standing urban challenges. He works in a field called geodesign, applying design principles to social, political, and urban problems. As part of the exhibition, Mau — who is based in Chicago — is leading three workshops with Philadelphia organizations, guiding them through his problem-solving method.
