Julia Chapman is the Project Manager for Structures of Coastal Resilience. She received a Master of Architecture from Princeton University, where she was awarded the AIA Henry Adams Medal for academic achievement and the Suzanne K. Underwood Prize for excellence in design.
Structures of Coastal Resilience presents new strategies for creative and collaborative approaches to coastal planning for climate change. In the face of sea level rise and an increased risk of flooding from storm surge, we must become less dependent on traditional approaches to flood control that have relied on levees, sea walls, and other forms of hard infrastructure.
