Lori Brown is an architect and practitioner. “Her work emerges from the belief that architecture can participate in and impact people’s everyday lives. At the intersections of architecture, art, geography, and women’s studies, her work exists within both the more traditional realm of architecture (through competition proposals and individual practice) and outside the traditional realm in our broader environments where architecture may not be immediately legible (social, political and institutional arenas where architects are not typically present).” Lori Brown published Contested Space: Abortion Clinics, Women’s Shelters and Hospitals, co-edited Feminist Practices: Interdisciplinary Approaches to Women in Architecture, and co-organized a design action for Jackson Women’s Health Organization. She is also a co-founder of ArchiteXX and curated, organized and participated in Feminist Practices, an international group of women designers and architects whose work engages feminist methodologies.
