Leire Asensio Villoria A selection from a year’s design speculations, events, and other activities at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design. The Harvard Graduate School of Design prides itself on the wide scope of its global aspirations, collaborations, and projects. As a School, they are deeply interested in the conditions giving rise to new topics that benefit from the design imagination of our students and faculty across a range of fields and practices. This approach is not so much new as it is intentional, forming a deliberate cornerstone of our mission and pedagogy. They wish for their work to be transformative in multiple locations and in richly varied geographies, societies, economies, cultures, and political circumstances. The projects presented in this book all play their part in taking up this planetary imperative.

GSD Platform 9: Still life

Jennifer Bonner, Michelle Benoit & Patrick HerronPlatform is the Harvard University Graduate School of Design’s annual compendium of select student work, events, lectures, and exhibitions

Still Life Jennifer Bonner, Michelle Benoit and Patrick Herron Platform is the Harvard University Graduate School of Design’s annual compendium of select student work, events, lectures, and exhibitions. Taking the artistic still life as its departure point, the ninth edition of Platform chronicles the 2015–2016 academic year at the GSD. Models and student projects, including dissertations and drawings, are skillfully arranged and presented to reference the still life as expressed in 18th- and 19th- century European painting, popular advertising, contemporary art, and other contexts. These images not only present the broad range of work produced by GSD students but also challenge conventional modes of architectural documentation through multiple readings, lists, and novel interpretations of form.

GSD Platform 6

Rosetta S. ElkinA year of research through studio work, theses, lectures, exhibitions and events at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design.

A year of research through studio work, theses, lectures, exhibitions and events at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design. Rosetta S. Elkin (ed.) GSD has always recognized the indispensable importance and values of architecture, landscape architecture, urban planning, and urban design, yet has transcended their individual aspirations through intellectual cross-fertilization and collaboration. The material presented in this publication forms a small part of the incredible range and diversity of proposals and visions that our students and faculty have produced during the past academic year. This work is indicativeÂ of the School's commitment, as a global leader in the field, to exploring and articulating transformative ideas through the power of design. It is as importantÂ for us to share and communicate the outcome of our research and design investigations as it is to show making of these projects.
