Bringing
Percival Goodman’s
Legacy to Sri Lanka
The Percival and Naomi Goodman Fellowship is awarded each year to a student graduating from Columbia University to carry out a project of social significance related to the interests of the late Percival Goodman, a Professor of Design and Urban Planning at GSAPP.
The 2018-2019 Fellow was Ranitri Weerasuriya ‘18 MArch, who conducted her research at the school of an informal settlement in Sri Lanka. Read about Rani’s fellowship experience in her interview with Archinect.
The prestigious Goodman Fellowship is made possible through the generosity of Raymond Lifchez '57 MArch, a Columbia GSAPP Faculty Member from 1961 to 1970, who established the program in honor of his former teacher, colleague, and friend Percival Goodman.

Ruralism Dialogues

Noah Chasin, Ziad Jamaleddine, Andrés Jaque, Kaja Kühl, and Galia Solomonoff in conversation about the “rural” as an emergent terrain for research, architecture and urban design.
50% of the world’s population live in cities - 50% do not. “Designing the Rural” is an opportunity to discuss the relationship between country and city—not in opposition, as in “rural” vs. “urban,” but as associations between people and nature, settlement and landscape, society and its resources.
