Lecture: Jeanne Gang

Jeanne Gang, FAIA, Studio Gang Part of the Spring 2026 MIT Architecture Lecture Series. Presented with the Architecture and Urbanism Group and in collaboration with the MIT Norman B. Leventhal Center for Advanced Urbanism (LCAU) . Jeanne Gang, FAIA, is the founding partner of Studio Gang, an international architecture and urban design practice with offices in Chicago, New York, San Francisco, and Paris. Known for an inquisitive, forward-looking approach to design that unfolds new technical and material possibilities and expands the active role of designers in society, she creates striking places that connect people with each other, their communities, and the environment. Her diverse, award-winning portfolio includes cultural centers that convene diverse audiences, public spaces that generate positive social and ecological impact, and high-rise towers that foster community. Notable among these are the Richard Gilder Center for Science, Education, and Innovation at the American Museum of Natural History in New York; the reimagined Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts in Little Rock; the University of Chicago John W. Boyer Center in Paris; and the David Rubenstein Treehouse, Harvard University’s first mass timber building. Her ongoing projects throughout the Americas and Europe include the new United States Embassy in Brasília; an expansion of the Clinton Presidential Center in Little Rock; and an open-air, mass timber theater for Hudson Valley Shakespeare, located just outside New York City. Intertwined with built work, Jeanne and the Studio develop research, publications, and exhibitions that push design’s ability to create public awareness and give rise to change—a practice Jeanne calls “actionable idealism.” Her latest book, The Art of Architectural Grafting was released in 2024 in English and French editions. A MacArthur Fellow and the Kajima Professor in Practice of Architecture at the Harvard Graduate School of Design, Jeanne has been named one of the most influential people in the world by TIME magazine. She is also an elected member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, an Officer in the National Order of the Legion of Honor, and a Commander in the Order of Arts and Letters. She was named AW Architektur & Wohnen’s 2025 Architect of the Year and has been recognized with the Cooper Hewitt National Design Award in Architecture, the Charlotte Perriand Award, and the ULI Prize for Visionaries in Urban Development. This lecture will be held in person in Long Lounge, 7-429 and will be streamed on YouTube.
