As public and natural realms are continually eroded, Weiss/Manfredi believes architecture should concern itself with the whole of the built environment.

By intentionally drawing from and contributing to the systems that are intrinsic to a place, our projects are evolving experiments in the creation of a more elastic definition of architecture: one that connects the loose ends of art, landscape, infrastructure, and ecology to create new forms for public engagement.
