Eric Höweler, Höweler + Yoon Architecture

Eric Höweler, FAIA, LEED AP, is a Professor of Architecture at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design, where he has taught lecture courses and design studios with a focus on building technologies/integration since 2008.

Eric is co-founding Principal of Höweler + Yoon, a research-driven, multidisciplinary design studio working between architecture, art, and media. H+Y has a reputation for work that is technologically and formally innovative, and deeply informed by human experience and a sensitivity to tectonics. One of the firm’s celebrated projects is the MIT Collier Memorial, a milled granite compression structure that commemorates the life of Officer Sean Collier, who was killed in action after the Boston Marathon Bombing. The Collier Memorial has been honored with the BSA Honor Award, the American Architecture Prize, the AIA Religious Architecture Award, and has four times been a finalist for the Harleston Parker Medal. H+Y’s courtyard-exhibition hall in Chengdu, SkyCourts, has been honored by Architect Magazine, Archdaily, the Boston Society of Architects, and the European Centre for Architecture. Other recent projects include the UVA Memorial, a landform structure dedicated to enslaved laborers at the University of Virginia, 212 Stuart Street, a multi-family residential tower on Stuart Street in Boston, MA, the new MIT Museum in Cambridge, MA. Current projects include the Living Village at the Yale Divinity School, a residence hall adjacent to the historic Sterling Divinity Quadrangle, as well as the Karch Institute of Democracy at the University of Virginia.
