BiYuu AND CONFERENCE

It was a blast to have this year’s AIA Conference right next door! EL Studio helped lead two sessions:

On June 6, Mark spoke on a panel called “How Design Creates Value in Public Housing” with designers from David Baker Architects and Shopworks Architecture, as well as Thor Nelson from the DC Housing Authority. The team discussed their efforts to leverage community-driven design in charting the future of the LeDroit Senior & Kelly Miller Housing development.

On June 8, Elizabeth and Sarah Beth led a tour of Prather’s Alley! The tour revealed how community partnerships helped realize our public space advocacy work through design work.
