Blogs

Over the two years since our launch, it’s become clear we have three very distinct audiences tracking Make It Right’s progress: architects and designers, people interested in green building and technology and people who want to be updated on New Orleans’ recovery and the rebuilding of the Lower 9th Ward.

Our Architecture and Design Blog features discussions with architects and developers working on the Make It Right project from around the world. Click here to view the Architecture and Design Blog
