As cities across the Americas face evolving challenges around housing, sustainability, and community wellbeing, this roundtable will explore how architecture can move beyond function to create spaces that support connection, health, and human potential. Participants will also experience a guided tour of the MSU Summit House, a landmark mass timber housing project that offers a firsthand look at how innovative construction approaches can reshape the future of residential communities. This session will also feature remarks from Tye Farrow, Founding Principal and architect, exploring the relationship between design, wellbeing, and the environments we create.
