The second evening of the annual Emerging Voices lecture series, featuring Susannah Drake of New York City’s dlandstudio and Michael Murphy and Alan Ricks of MASS Design Group with offices in Boston and Kigali, Rwanda. Emerging Voices spotlights individuals and firms based in the United States, Canada, or Mexico with distinct design voices and the potential to influence the disciplines of architecture, landscape design, and urbanism. Through dlandstudio’s master plans, community proposals, and collaborations, the New York City firm, led by Susannah Drake advocates for the integration of landscape, as ecology, infrastructure, and design, into large-scale urban networks.
