Join Lawrence Technological University College of Architecture and Design on Thursday, May 8th at 5:00 PM during our ShowLTU CoAD 2025 exhibition for an aspirational and provocative Design x Technology lecture featuring renowned architect and Principal at Tod Williams Billie Tsien Architects, Billie Tsien.
Given the current climate of division and turmoil - the challenge is to understand how we can use our abilities as architects to serve the world. This lecture will look at processes and projects that aspire to bring people together.
Billie's lecture will discuss ways of working that helps to align work with belief. It will speak about how she works with hope and optimism. Participants will hopefully walk away with a desire to collaborate to leave a good mark on the earth.
As part of CoAD's Design x Technology Lecture Series, this lecture is free but registration is necessary.
