Timothy Hyde is a historian of architecture whose research focuses on the political dimensions of architecture from the eighteenth century to the present, with a particular attention to relationships of architecture and law. His most recent book Ugliness and Judgment: On Architecture in the Public Eye explores episodes in aesthetic debates on architecture and ugliness in Great Britain over the past three centuries and reveals the ways in which architectural discourse participated in the legal formulations of social techniques of the modern city.
Deborah Garcia is a designer, writer, and curator. She holds a Masters of Architecture from Princeton University and a B.Arch from the Southern California Institute of Architecture. She was a co-curator of THE DRAWING SHOW at the A+D Architecture and Design Museum in 2017 and curator of One Night Stand for Art and Architecture-LA in 2016. She is the current Marion Mahony Emerging Practitioner Fellow at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Architecture.
Xiomara Alvarez is a Seattle-based resilience planner and architect. She recently completed for the Departments of Architecture and Urban Studies and Planning at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology a thesis-in-quarantine on conflicts in the public realm between housed and unhoused residents, and how treating housing as a binary impacts the design of public spaces.
