PLATFORM<\/strong><\/em> represents a year in the life of the Harvard University Graduate School of Design. Produced annually, this compendium highlights selected work across architecture, landscape architecture, urban planning and design, and design engineering. It reflects a rich and varied pedagogical culture committed to shaping the future of design. By documenting projects, research, events, exhibitions, and more, Platform <\/em>offers a curated view of emerging topics, techniques, and perspectives within and beyond the Harvard GSD. Originally conceived as a faculty-edited publication, the last two issues shifted editorship to students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Platform 11 Setting the Table<\/em>, the first student-led volume, edited by Esther Mira Bang, Lane Raffaldini Rubin, and Enrique Silva brought together a diverse body of work that was reinterpreted, rearranged, and recomposed to reveal a new narrative in each retelling. Platform 12<\/em> How About Now? <\/em>Celebrates the rich tradition of student publications at the GSD. Situating itself within this tradition, it poses questions from the past to ground the projects of the present and reminds us of the enduring concerns that designers continually revisit, reconsider, and redefine in response to a changing world.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
