Terry Shook, FAIA, along with Robert J. Gibbs, AICP, ASLA, Stefanos Polyzoides (of the acclaimed architectural and urbanist firm of Moule & Polyzoides), Dave Williams (Director of Architecture, of Caruso, a developer of many successful and beloved mixed use environments) and Matt Winn (formerly Chief Operating Officer of Global Retail with Cushman & Wakefield) will be at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design this July to teach a 3-day course that includes presentations and interactive discussions offering a rich cross section of the planning practices and opportunities of our time. The program will examine the planning approaches, retail design and merchandising principles necessary for the creation of place-based commerce. This includes tactics used by premier retail and mixed-use developers, considering how they can be applied to a variety of urban settings. It will show how the practical science of analyzing and adjusting all elements known to affect a shopper's mood in the marketplace can inform design and development principles for reviving retail in declining downtowns and for establishing viable commerce in new ones.
