The Particular and the Public focuses on three Louis I. Kahn Visiting Assistant Professors' architecture studios at Yale including Bangkok architect Rachapoorn Choochuey, in Going Home Again; Carrie Norman and Thomas Kelley (Norman Kelley) of Chicago, in A Particular (New England) Building; and New York based practitioner Chat Travieso, in Yes Loitering.

The students were challenged in each studio to approach the research and design process from the specific to the vernacular, or from gaining input from youth perspectives as well as historic contexts. Through distinct lenses--youth justice, informal domesticity, and regional specificity--these studios offer speculative tools for building with purpose, empathy, and precision. Each share an investment in the social and environmental contingencies that inform architectural practice today.
