The Practice Is the Project. 🏛️
FAMU SAET welcomes architect and cultural strategist Julian Owens, NOMA, AIA, NCARB for the next installment of our VOICES Lecture Series.
Owens serves as a Senior Architect with Pilot Company and Director of Partners of Place, bringing together architectural practice, research, culture, and community-centered thinking. His work offers students an important perspective on how research informs design decisions—and how architects can respond more thoughtfully to the people and places they serve.
