Event Details

By embracing a human-centered design process deeply informed by local values, Oakland's envelope Architecture+Design has created radical new approaches to traditional neighborhood development models. Join A+D Principal and Founder Douglas Burnham and members of San Francisco’s Mayor’s Office, Planning Department and the Hayes Valley Neighborhood Association for a conversation about flexible urbanism.  
Conceived as a "content machine," envelope A+D's Proxy is a temporary two-block construct occupying vacant lots in San Francisco’s Hayes Valley, housing local pop-up stores. Proxy seeks to re-establish the urban fabric through a combination of frame, mesh, wall and volume. The afternoon, moderated by Dr. Ila Berman, will stimulate an in-depth exploration of the enabling and obstructive forces encountered along the path to placemaking.
PLEASE NOTE: THIS EVENT IS 21+
