Graduate Research Fellow, Urban and Community Planning program, Pratt Institute
Brianna is a spatial environmentalist and designer who centers ancestrally attuned lifeways with environmentally responsive design as a pathway to community resilience. Rooted in a background of human-centered interior design and urban planning, her work explores how flexible spatial strategies can cultivate transient regional community nodes and holistic living spaces. Through her design practice, HUM’N NTR Studio Brianna emphasizes sensory experience and attunement to human nature, weaving together environmental justice, cultural memory, and regenerative design principles to create spaces that honor identity and preservation in place. Through the Taconic Fellowship, she will expand this human-centered environmental design framework into institutional collaboration, advancing holistic approaches that uplift collective well-being while reimagining how communities can thrive across ecological and cultural transitions.
