2008 TALALAY LECTURE SERIES /// Winner of the 2006 TED [Technology, Entertainment Design] Prize, the motto of Sinclair’s group, Architecture for Humanity, design like you give a damn sums up his design vision. With projects ranging from designing mobile health clinics combating HIV/AIDS in Sub-Saharan Africa to establishing mine clearance programs and building playgrounds in the Balkans his mission is to create sustainable and innovative living standards for the masses.
/// We believe good design can change the world and we can prove it. Our spring Talalay Lecture Series demonstrates how good design can do good work through meeting social needs, addressing global issues, and creating sustainable practices. The Talalay Lecture Series, which honors MOCA founder Marjorie Talalay, is made possible by a generous gift from Toby Devan Lewis and Peter Lewis and is produced in collaboration with ideastream with outreach support from Kent State University’s Cleveland Urban Design Collaborative.
