Architecture

An article co-authored by Assistant Professor Michelle Laboy and Associate Professor Matthew Eckelman (Civil and Environmental Engineering) was published in the very prestigious Journal of Industrial Ecology. The article presents their collaborative work on the creative translation and representation of Life Cycle Impacts at a human scale. This visualization work was the subject of their exhibit Footprints of Everyday Things, which is featured in a full spread in the journal. The article provides a theoretical foundation for the work, describes the interdisciplinary collaboration, and presents results from a study the did with architecture students in ARCH 1000, taught by Associate Professor Dan Adams, to understand the impact of this method of representation in understanding complex ecological data about consumer life and the built environment.
