Intensified climate events are becoming more common. A series of metabolic rifts are arising, impacting people and the planet. Our MA Environmental Architecture creates a new field of knowledge production and practice for the design of alternative forms of co-dependence between life forms and earth systems. Studying with us, you’ll gain insight from leading figures in Environmental Architecture as you explore histories and theories of environmental change, multispecies and more-than-human design, environmental law and climate justice. As part of the programme, you’ll engage with live projects at sites of complex environmental change. Work with experts from other disciplines, such as filmmakers, lawyers, anthropologists or biologists.
