Architect Sean Lally is an architect engaged in preparing our discipline and communities for the futures ahead. As environments evolve from a changing climate and advances in healthcare and consumer devices redefine the human bodies that occupy those environments, architecture is in a prime position to shape the discourse.

During this talk, Sean Lally will discuss new work that plays with the quarks and unintended consequences of architecture’s design ambitions.
