TED SMITH | SMITH & OTHERS ARCHITECTS | SAN DIEGO, CA
Smith and Others Architects is an unusual practice where partnerships and sweat equity make possible exploratory architecture. Beginning in 1981, the firm has designed, developed, and constructed a continuing series of experimental housing prototypes testing academic concepts in the market place. With long time partner Kathleen McCormick, Smith & Others has developed urban housing prototypes taking advantage of the same liberal interpretation of the definition of “unit”. These experiments have produced interesting alternatives to the status quo. Smith has been teaching Architecture since 1988 and founded the Masters in Real Estate Development program for Architects at Woodbury University in 2004.
