    • About Us

    At Van Alen Institute, we believe design can transform cities, landscapes, and regions to improve people’s lives.

    We collaborate with communities, scholars, policymakers, and professionals on local and global initiatives that rigorously investigate the most pressing social, cultural, and ecological challenges of tomorrow.

    Building on more than a century of experience, we develop cross-disciplinary research, provocative public programs, and inventive design competitions.
