The Nature of Order Lecture Series, Book 4, 11 June 2020

In today’s session we will have two speakers: Kathryn Langstaff and Alfred Bay. Kathryn and Alfred both studied for their Masters in Architecture with Alexander in the 1990's and as Graduate Student Instructors participated in teaching this material to undergraduate students. Kathryn is a practicing architect and activist, now based in Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA, and Alfred is a contractor and builder in the San Francisco Bay Area.

They have both contributed essays to In Pursuit of Living Architecture, which was edited by Kyriakos Pontikis and myself. Kathryn will discuss chapter 22 of The Nature of Order, Book 4 - Making wholeness heals he maker: A generative design experiment for personal healing and ecosystem restoration. Alfred will discuss chapter 23 - The resolution of forces.
