The Design for Resilient Environments Lab creates research-teaching synergies to investigate how housing, neighborhoods, and urban landscapes adapt to environmental and socioeconomic change. Working across architecture and urban planning, the lab combines field research, spatial analysis, and design to understand how resilience shapes—and is shaped by—the transformation of urban built environments.
