Overview

As architects with decades of experience, Brian Healy brings a commitment to creating shared communal places and we understand that a city — or a campus — is an ever- changing phenomenon. Our passion as architects has to do with how those places evolve and our goal is to contribute to a forward-looking vision of what they can become — of how they can be an appropriate addition to what is already there. The opportunities are always based on research, outreach, experimentation, and collaboration between often seemingly divergent interests. But we believe in that collaborative process and we recognise that there will be many fingerprints on what is developed. We also make an honest acknowledgement to ourselves that things could be done differently — that a different proposition could always be made.

Author Information

"Brian Healy With more than 30 years of experience in architectural design, Brian oversees the design direction and studio culture of the Boston office. Brian was educated at the Pennsylvania State University and the Yale School of Architecture where he was Editor of Perspecta 19: the Yale Architectural Journal. He has worked with some of the industry's most renowned design firms including Cesar Pelli & Associates & Richard Meier & Partners. He established his own architectural practice in Boston in 1986 where he compiled a distinguished record of creative activity, community service and professional achievement. The architectural projects produced by his office received 47 national and regional design awards including six within the Progressive Architecture Award Program. He was selected as an Emerging Voice by the Architectural League of New York and included in Forty under Forty and P/A's Young Architects. His firm won first place in international design competitions including Chicago's Initiative to Redefine Public Housing and the Mill Center for the Arts in Hendersonville, North Carolina. His work spans a diverse range of scales and settings. Marlon Blackwell Marlon Blackwell (born November 7, 1956) is an American architect and university professor in Arkansas. A Fellow of the American Institute of Architects, he has used his distinct and original voice to produce iconic, award-winning designs across typologies, scales, and budgets. His critically resolute ""glocal"" approach merges the universal language of architecture and the particulars of place, resulting in a distinguished body of work found outside the centers of fashion. He is founder and principal at Marlon Blackwell Architects, a design firm established in 1992 in Fayetteville, which has received more than 150 domestic and international awards, including 14 national AIA Honor Awards. Despite working where architecture is unexpected and often unappreciated, his firm has created beloved buildings across a wide variety of project types yet deliberately focused on projects that foster the public good, most notably in education, healthcare, and recreation Robert McCarter Robert McCarter is a practicing architect, professor of architecture, and author. He is the Ruth and Norman Moore Professor of Architecture at the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts at Washington University in St. Louis. From 1991-2007, he was professor of architecture, and for ten years he was director of the School of Architecture, both at the University of Florida. From 1986-1991, he was associate professor and assistant dean at the Graduate School of Architecture, Columbia University, New York. He was visiting critic at the Berlage Institute in Rotterdam; he was appointed as the Frederic Lindley Morgan Distinguished Professor of Architectural Design at the University of Louisville; he has taught as visiting studio critic at North Carolina State University; and he has been appointed as a Visiting Scholar at the American Academy in Rome on three occasions. During his 33 years in academia, including 17 years in leadership roles at three institutions, McCarter has taught at least one design studio every semester, and he has taught more than 1,800 students. He coordinated the architecture lecture series at Columbia University (1986-1991), University of Florida (1991-2005), and Washington University in St. Louis (2007-2012). He invited Wang Shu to lecture in February 2012, the lecture taking place only two days after Wang was announced as the 2012 Pritzker Prize winner; Someone at Washington University in St. Louis just hit the lecture jackpot, is the way Blair Kamin of the Chicago Tribune described this event.
