Combining teaching with practice, speculative projects with built commissions, Joel Sanders Architect is an architectural practice committed to creating innovative environments in response to today's rapidly changing culture. Committed to exploring the role architecture plays in the formation of social life, our projects register the impact of contemporary cultural issues like identity, gender, media, and technology on the spaces that profoundly shape our daily lives. Our work begins by first analyzing and then reconfiguring normative spatial conditions in an effort to encourage alternative forms of human interaction in space.
