Associate Professor Scott Murray was invited to lecture at the College of Architecture & Design at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) on April 2, 2018, at 5:00 PM.
As the NJIT website explains, “The Evening Lecture Series brings nationally and internationally recognized architects, academics, and allied professionals to NJIT to discuss their current work and developments in the professions of architecture and design. Lecturers bring a diversity of experience and viewpoints to our students, faculty and the greater university community.” (http://design.njit.edu/news/lectures/)
Murray’s lecture, titled “Culture and Technology: Intersections at the Building Envelope,” features his research on facade design and its dual roles in defining both the technological and cultural impacts of architecture in the last 100 years.
