Practice with Purpose: A Guide to Mission-Driven Design - Paperback

by Leddy Maytum Stacy Architects (As Told by), Robert McCarter (Introduction by), Edward Mazria (Foreword by)

Practice with Purpose is about designing buildings beyond their property lines to address some of society's most urgent challenges: the climate emergency, racial and ethnic injustice, chronic homelessness, educational crises, and the preservation of the embodied carbon and culture of existing buildings.

To successfully contend with these ecological and societal emergencies, the design values and practice of architecture must be rapidly transformed within the next decade. Architects must become creative agents of change, providing the vision and skill to lead our communities toward an equitable, climate-positive future for all.
