Urbanlab

UrbanLab is a research-based architecture and urban design practice led by Sarah Dunn and Martin Felsen. UrbanLab strives to respond to the complexity, growth, and unintended consequences of the modern city by developing catalogues of architectural, infrastructural, and urbanistic design strategies. UrbanLab’s projects range from urban infrastructural plans to buildings and architecture proposals. In parallel, Felsen and Dunn are principal investigators for funded research focusing on public space, infrastructure, and resources in American (and American-style) cities and megaregions. Sarah is an Associate Professor in the School of Architecture at the University of Illinois at Chicago, and Martin is a Professor and the Director of the Master of Architecture Program at the College of Architecture at the Illinois Institute of Technology.
