Elizabeth Emerson, AIA

Elizabeth Emerson’s architectural interests spring from the social and cultural. A native of the Washington DC area, Elizabeth’s research in design has engaged issues of social and environmental sustainability, individual and collective identity, and privatization.

She has taught at several institutions, most recently in the graduate Urban Practice concentration at Catholic University School of Architecture and Planning. She serves on the Board of Trustees at Stone Ridge School of the Sacred Heart in Bethesda, MD and on the Advisory Council Board of the Hillwood Estate Museum & Gardens.
