Stacy Scott, PhD
Speaker Bio
Stacy Scott is an architectural researcher, designer, and educator whose work explores the spatial grammars of diaspora, memory, and climate precarity. She is currently Assistant Professor of Architecture at Hampton University and co-founder of Recess & Theory, an experimental design studio focused on equity, material research, and narrative space-making. Her recent scholarship includes “404: Space Not Found”, which theorizes proxy architecture through diasporic erasure, and Tender Mechanics, an ongoing investigation into memory and architectures of care and climate in the Caribbean and coastal American South. A BEDAC Fellow through Dumbarton Oaks, Scott’s work has been featured in exhibitions, podcasts, and peer-reviewed venues across architecture and the humanities. At the core of her practice is a commitment to rigorous, imaginative, and radically inclusive design education. She brings an interdisciplinary lens to questions of justice, cultural continuity, and climate-responsive design, especially as they intersect with Black and diasporic spatial practices.
