Accompanying the Carnegie Museum of Art exhibition “Tatiana Bilbao Estudio: City of Rooms,” the Heinz Architectural Center and the Remaking Cities Institute at Carnegie Mellon Architecture is hosting a series of gallery talks on domesticity and the city.
If the architecture of our homes provides a primary form of care, the urban fabric of our cities shapes our social relations and collective identities. How does architecture define the relationship between the individual, community and society? How can we design neighborhoods and cities that foster a sense of place and belonging? And how do the domestic spaces we inhabit add up to more than the sum of the parts that constitute a city?
