The fellowship ... makes it possible for junior faculty to spend a year developing a body of design research based on an area of interest while teaching [...] Maya Alam will explore new possibilities of identity and iconicity in architecture by reconsidering alternative connections between object, observer, and context. “I hope to explore with my students new categories of form and new architectural possibilities in engagement that fall outside the disciplinary conversation”

Archinector Donna Sink commented on this news:

"I just want to point out that Professor Boghosian (which is what we called him at UA) was also a Cranbrook grad; the fact that he went there piqued my curiosity about the place, because he was clearly different form my other professors. Professor Boghosian was a dreamer but a fantastic teacher and a very thoughtful critic; even when giving hard criticism, he always did so kindly and for the love of our discipline. Congratulations to Professor Alam!"
