DSGN AGNC

DSGN AGNC is rooted in a methodology that uses engagement and critical discourse to open up possibilities for change in the processes by which architecture and cities are made. This process also postulates that no product is ever final - designs, buildings, ecologies and urban systems demand broad and holistic community-based processes that can change over time with both constants and variables. We design to change... DSGN AGNC is a research and design studio founded in 2009 as a platform to experiment with forms of political engagement by Quilian Riano (DSGN AGNC Principal)... DSGN AGNC arises, in part, from a concern about the state and level of investment in PUBLIC goods, services, structures and spaces. Our design is driven by asking how to create public spaces - such as housing, plazas, parks, and institutions - that can compliment robust democratic processes. We design to share.
