The MIT School of Architecture and Planning (SA+P) explores how people, technology, culture, and environments shape one another.

This publication shares writing from across SA+P—architecture, urban planning, design, media, and art—bringing together research, projects, and public-facing work that address climate, cities, housing, equity, technology, and the built environment.

SA+P is MIT’s gateway to understanding and shaping the relationship between people and their environments. Our faculty, students, and collaborators work across disciplines to translate insight into action, connecting theory with practice and research with real-world impact.

Posts include essays, interviews, project documentation, and reflections that make systems visible and ideas accessible—showing how design, planning, and creative practice shape public life.

Contributors come from across SA+P’s departments, labs, and programs, including Architecture, Urban Studies and Planning, the Media Lab, Art, Culture, and Technology, the Center for Real Estate, the Leventhal Center for Advanced Urbanism, and the MIT Morningside Academy for Design.
