This Thursday 2/11 David J. Lewis Lecture in Philadelphia

At this lecture, David will make the argument, through the recent work of LTL Architects, for an architecture of social intensification. At a time when digital technology and social media consumes more of our attention and time, segregated into self-selected niches and polarized crowds, architecture is in a unique position of reasserting physical and public space as a necessary stage for dialogue and engagement.

LTL's work on Centerfold: Cornell Engineering Magazine

With construction underway on Upson Hall, the Cornell School of Engineering anticipates the new learning spaces that the renovation will provide. In addition to a completely new facade for the 60-year-old building, the redesign of Upson Hall will offer reconfigured offices and classrooms for increased exchange, an expanded Experiential Learning Lab, and hybrid engineering labs. The Upson Hall renovation was designed by the interdisciplinary team of LTL Architects, Perkins+Will, and Thornton Tomasetti.

David J. Lewis to participate in AFTERTASTE 2015

AFTERTASTE, The internationally renowned symposium on Interior Design at Parsons, asks in its 9th edition, "How can we promote and develop imaginations that can envision and create interiors for an unknown future, rather than being beholden to the past? How can we cultivate the unknown in a culture increasingly defined by big data and digital devices of distraction?" David J. Lewis will serve as interlocutor, engaging colleagues in an animated exploration and discussion on imagination. The symposium is organized by Jonsara Ruth, Catherine Murphy and Elizabeth Parker.
