INDIGENEITY IN CONTEMPORARY ARCHITECTURE

As the first builders in North America, indigenous people were the original architects. Colonization interrupted this self-determination of our built environment. Native American architects are again leading the design of tribal communities. Contemporary architecture for tribal nations has a big impact on the overall health and well-being of the people. The expression of indigenous ideals, values and concepts is key to successful community building.
