Throughout the Winter 2025 term, Studio Reassembled is hosting a lecture series centered on the themes of commoning, collectivity, and the future of work. Featuring guests from Taubman College, the series provides students with a chance to engage their faculty and gain deeper insights into their design practices and research.

The turn of the millennium, the financial crisis of 2008, the racial reckoning of the summer of 2020…. Each of these crisis moments–situated within the short lifetimes of today’s architecture students–brought about calls for and efforts toward a revaluing of architecture. In this lecture, Sharon Haar discusses how we might situate recent events within the longer arc of activist movements to learn from past efforts as we build toward new futures.
