Today, we are joined by Desmond Johnson, one of very few people who has the unique opportunity to participate as an architect, and as a developer, and he was appointed to Atlanta’s Urban Design Commission, where he’s assumed the role of chair and continues to guide the shifting landscape of America’s fourth largest city.
He advocates for much-needed diversity in the profession, dismantling systemic barriers and leveraging his platform to reshape the built environment and the profession to reflect the perspectives of black and brown people.
We discuss the potential synergy we can achieve through community collaboration, and the future that is possible when we all work together. Enjoy!
