Space Talks #010: JULIA WATSON
Architect, design activist and academic Julia Watson is a leading expert on Indigenous technologies and author of Lo-TEK, Design by Radical Indigenism. She teaches urban design at Harvard and Columbia while leading her eponymous experiential, landscape and urban design studio.
Watson approaches design as rewilding, by bringing the language of botany and biodiversity back to our cities. Inspired by Indigenous knowledge and plants, her portfolio of projects includes the Rockefeller Center Summer Gardens, Bali’s first UNESCO World Heritage site, the Gateway to the City of El Segundo at LAX and private estates for the owners of PACE Galleries and the artist Rashid Johnson.

Space Available is a creative platform on a mission to build a sustainable future.
Led by a global community of Designers, Artists, Scientists, and Environmentalists; connecting the dots between nature, design and culture.
As specialists in sustainable design solutions we create concepts, products and experiences based upon the circular and regenerative principles of nature.
Our holistic approach involves bio innovation, radical recycling of waste, future craft and digital communications for the new world. Our ethos is built on Education, Conversation and Collaboration; understanding that to solve complex problems we must collectively unite to learn, unlearn and share skills; creating meaningful work for people and the planet.
It's our belief that the pandemic of 2020 has created a new space. A space available for us to reflect, grow and design new systems of well being.
