2025, editor of visual and written work
scale journal is a publication bridging various disciplines at Brown and RISD interested in the built environment. Promoting writing and projects that explore belonging and space, we seek to amplify underrepresented voices—in both academic and lived experiences.
SCALE refers to the uneven roads and pattern of cracked asphalt also known as alligator cracking. Similar to the natural cycle of deterioration and creation happening in the locale landscape, SCALE is a platform for organic discourse emerging from a diverse set of disciplines and perspectives concerning art, space, architecture, and design.
