Dwell Magazine, The Now 99 - Mitchell Joachim

What was the first formative design object you experienced?

The lightsaber. I was thinking about a future where a company like Dewalt was producing lightsabers for the construction world. You could go up to a rock or a bunch of dirt and carve out your dwelling that way. — Mitchell Joachim, Co-President of Terreform ONE

Join us as Mitchell Joachim, Ph.D. from Terreform ONE discusses how urban design will successfully situate itself by the production of future macro-scaled scenarios predicated on innovative devices.
