Urban Edge

In 2009, the second Urban Edge Award was presented to Elizabeth Diller, principal of Diller Scofidio + Renfro (DS+R), and Professor of Architecture at Princeton University. Her practice is an interdisciplinary practice at the crossroads of architecture, the visual arts, and the performing arts. Ms. Diller teamed with Mo Zell, Assistant Professor of Architecture, to co-teach the second Urban Edge Studio in the second semester core of the undergraduate curriculum. In an effort to introduce a broader definition of architecture, DS+R’s temporary installations served as the pedagogical foundation for the studio in which students proposed a series of installation projects throughout Milwaukee.
