Past Speaker
Olin McKenzie
At Design Experience in August, Olin Mckenzie, hailing from one of the most influential architecture, interior design, engineering, and urban planning firms in the world, explored how our growing understanding of urban health and civic cultures can help change the way we envision the future of transit hubs.
“Design Experience was an incredible opportunity. These events – that CMS has so thoughtfully developed – truly sit at the intersection of design, fabrication, construction, and development. It was illuminating for me to hear about and see all of the opportunities and challenges that New Zealand is facing right now, and this series puts an exclamation point on the notion that we should all be sharing great ideas and experiences in making our cities better. Trends in climate change and growing urban populations will continue to test our highest design skills. The sort of international discourse encouraged by CMS is certainly the only way we will chart a healthy course for our planet and the humans that live on it. I’m excited to have begun this relationship with CMS and look forward to seeing it expand!”
