Patrick Robert Reid Stewart (Luugigyoo), PhD
1st Nations Nisga’s Architect of Canada, 2015

In this panel we hear from five distinguished Indigenous architects who practice as designers, planners, and community organizers while making extensive contributions to scholarship, research and the education of future generations of practitioners. Practice-defining pedagogy that emerged in the Beaux Arts and Bauhaus traditions has persisted for decades. This panel presents contemporaneous alternative Indigenous Practice and Pedagogies, where, from the words of Dr. Jojola, “planning is a culturally responsive and value-based approach to community development; where the measure of form is its cultural meaning rather than building elements as style, function and form; where the process of design is an orchestration of public engagement that gives voice and clarity to built form; where buildings are the narrative of a community and a metaphor for stories that are invested in place and time.”
