This talk will cover the work of The Architecture Lobby, an activist organisation that “lobbies” for the value of architecture in the public and in the profession itself. Begun in 2013 in New York City, it has evolved into an organisation trying to transform, on many fronts, the valuation of architectural work. The hope is less to persuade attendees that The Architecture Lobby is fabulous than consider it as AN example – flawed but ongoing – of organising architects to think more expansively about their expertise and its relevance.
