About

The Urban Works Agency is a research lab in the Architecture Division at the California College of the Arts in San Francisco that leverages architectural design to affect social justice, ecological vitality, and economic resilience. UWA works with interdisciplinary partners to produce original research and design projects at architectural and urban scales. We also lead curriculum and a post-professional degree program at CCA, where we host symposia, design studios, and seminars that engage students as active agents in dialog with the entrepreneurial and counter-cultural legacies of the Bay Area.
