Dr. Rachel Armstrong is an interdisciplinary practitioner who has collaborated with artists, scientists and architects to create a new experimental space to explore and engage the fundamental creativity of science. She regards the discipline of architecture as holding a unique place in the cultural imagination, being simultaneously iconic and personal, and which offers an ideal forum to engage with and re-imagine our experience of the world and our role within it.
Dr. Armstrong is a Teaching Fellow at the Bartlett School of Architecture in London, England. She is a member of Professor Neil Spiller’s AVATAR Research Group, developing a new approach to building materials called ‘Living Architecture’ that suggests it is possible for our buildings to share some of the properties of living systems.
