 ionals leveraging research\, design\, and problem-solving processes from f
 ields as diverse as environmental management\, chemical physics\, material
 s science\, and architecture. She fosters collaboration between discipline
 s\, trades\, academies\, and industries in order to define a relevant prob
 lem-solving boundary for the built environment. In her professional and ac
 ademic research she conspires to pursue an answer to the question: “Why 
 do we build the way that we do?”\n\nBillie Faircloth has published and l
 ectured internationally on themes including research methods for a trans-d
 isciplinary and trans-scalar design practices\; the production of new know
 ledge on materials\, climate and thermodynamic phenomena through the desig
 n of novel methods\, tools and workflows\; and the history of plastics in 
 architecture to demonstrate how architecture’s ‘posture’ towards tra
 ns-disciplinary practices and new knowledge has changed over time.\n\nHer 
 articles have been published by the Journal of Architectural Education\, P

 vard University\, and is a VELUX Visiting Professor at the Royal Danish Ac
 ademy of Fine Arts. Prior to joining KieranTimberlake\, she was an assista
 nt professor at the University of Texas at Austin School of Architecture\,
  where she instructed research studios exploring applications for conventi
 onal and emerging material technologies and conducted seminars on emerging
  construction and fabrication technologies.\n\n&nbsp\;\n\nAll lectures are
  free\, open to the public\, and held at 6:30 pm in the Bernard and Anne S
