Synopsis

Harvard University Graduate School of Design has always recognized the indispensable importance and values of architecture, landscape architecture, urban planning, and urban design, yet has transcended their individual aspirations through intellectual cross-fertilization and collaboration. The material presented in this publication forms a small part of the incredible range and diversity of proposals and visions that the GSD students and faculty have produced during the past academic year. This work is indicative of the School s commitment, as a global leader in the field, to exploring and articulating transformative ideas through the power of design. It is as important for us to share and communicate the outcome of our research and design investigations as it is to show the fertile circumstances and conditions for the making of these projects.

About this title

Review:

Harvard's Graduate School of Design is one of the world's pre-eminent centres of emerging creative work. Platform provides an annual roundup of the latest conceptual work coming out of the school, as well as interviews with visiting lecturers and a preface by the school's dean, Mohsen Mostafavi. --Wallpaper Magazine

As a visually rich feast for browsing, Platform 6 does a great job of giving people a taste of what Harvard GSD is all about, at least within a particular school year. --John Hill, A Daily Dose of Architecture
