Chuck Mummert

Chuck sees design as a tool to encourage the kinds of social interactions that lead to scientific collaboration. He thinks about how people do their work, whether singly or in groups, and how design can have a positive impact on the daily experience of the people using the building. Whether in a corporate setting, where oftentimes the goals are to reinforce the corporate culture and speed research and new product delivery, or in an academic setting where the focus is on the student and faculty connection, his attention to social ecology of buildings emphasizes communication and collaboration.
