Building Beauty
Building Beauty is a multidisciplinary educational program and a community of explorers committed to building places that nurture people and life, while expanding and sharing the knowledge of how it can be done.
It was founded in 2017 to provide an alternative path for students and practitioners in the building professions – architects, engineers, builders, craftspeople, community leaders, placemakers – who find themselves out of place in their own field, yet sense that there must be another way.
There is.
Hear from alumni about their experiences with Christopher Alexander’s “head, heart, and hands” approach to architecture and building.
