Black perspectives in the built environment
Black History Month 2022 marks a critical moment to explore Black perspectives in the built environment, and the diverse contributions these make to the field. Explore interviews and profiles with people who have shaped – and are shaping – the past, present and future of cities, buildings and human spaces.
