New York, NY, USRelated
Join a discussion with Nina Rappaport about her new book, Vertical Urban Factory.
Following her presentation, Nina will be joined by architect and planner Damon Rich for a discussion on the themes of the book.
Vertical Urban Factory looks at both contemporary and modernist factory designs in urban settings and demonstrates how modern factories can be integrated into a city environment while being smaller, greener and more efficient. Building on research from an exhibition of the same name that originally opened in 2011, Nina Rappaport explores old and new design techniques for the construction, mechanization, and operation of vertical factories that contribute to a vital urban environment.
Speakers:
Nina Rappaport, publications director at Yale School of Architecture; director of the project/think tank The Vertical Urban Factory
Damon Rich, Planning Director and Chief Urban Designer for the City of Newark, New Jersey
