Public Education at the Fore
Leveraging value-driven craftsmanship and public education resources, Emerge Studio, a multidisciplinary team led by landscape architect educators, is guiding production according to Cradle to Cradle, the sustainable design dictum of William McDonough and Michael Braungart.
