"In her lecture, Orff will explore 'what does it mean to be a designer when the terrestrial, vegetal, aquatic and climate systems of the earth are changing faster than ever on record?' She will discuss the role of landscape architecture in the cultural reinvention of concepts of nature through built work embedded in communities. And she will present work of the SCAPE office and the Urban Landscape Lab as part of a larger discussion about new modes of building and teaching that aim to work critically within--and transform--the new realities of global environmental change."
