Jeanne was profiled on CBS Sunday Morning, where she and Martha Teichner discussed how projects like Gilder Center for Science, Education, and Innovation, The Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts, and the 101-story St. Regis Chicago connect people to each other, to their communities, and to nature.

The Gilder Center for Science, Education, and Innovation will officially open to the public in May 4, 2023! At the time of urgent need for better public understanding of science and greater access to science education, our design for this latest addition to New York's historic American Museum of Natural History forms a fluid landscape that heightens visitors’ sense of discovery and wonder.

New York Times architecture critic Michael Kimmelman shares his perspective on our design for the Richard Gilder Center for Science, Education, and Innovation at the American Museum of Natural History.

"Gilder is spectacular: a poetic, joyful, theatrical work of public architecture and a highly sophisticated flight of sculptural fantasy. [It] seems destined to be an instant heartthrob and colossal attraction.

And for a meaningful portion of its user base, the part that hasn’t yet finished middle school, I expect it will simply be, like so much else at the museum, awesome."

How can architecture and design serve as a catalyst for transformation and facilitate positive change within communities? Jeanne shares her perspective with Liz Glazer in the latest issue of Vital City.

From effective strategies for community engagement to affirming a “Civic Commons” for all, from de-siloing bureaucracy and identifying the need for “urban ecologists” in city administration, from designing spaces with programmatic flexibility to Studio Gang’s ethos of “actionable idealism,” this wide-ranging discussion is well worth a few minutes of your day.
