Design Thinking / Policy Making / Greenland

In mid-January Will and I started a conversation about finding a new agency for architects (and other allied design professionals) - a space that most people wouldn't expect to find people like us.  It's no secret that designers simply approach problem solving very differently - thank you Tim Brown.  Our aim was to engage a process that we felt needed a designers particular style of strategic thinking and issues based problem solving.

Simultaneously, we had been considering pursuing a travelling grant through the Department of Landscape Architecture at the GSD - The Penny White Project Fund.  The results of our ongoing conversation and a shared interest in the current transformation of Greenland became the focus of our research proposal.  We titled the project - Landscapes of Disappearance.  Take a look at our websites to get more info.
