Amale Andraos, architect of choice for museums around the world and fashion power players such as Diane von Furstenberg and Dallas native Lela Rose, will speak at 7 pm on Wednesday, March 1 at the Dallas Museum of Art, as a part of the Dallas Architecture Forum’s lecture series.

Currently the Dean of Columbia’s Graduate School of Architecture, Planning, and Preservation, she is also the co-founder of the NYC-based firm, WORKac.
