John McMorrough is a founding partner of studioAPT (Architecture Project Theory). His work is motivated by the conviction that architecture as a field of knowledge needs to constantly situate its productive and projective capacities, in both the reconsideration of its conceptual legacies and the testing of its competencies vis-à-vis the specifics of building. John has worked for design offices in Kansas City, New York, Boston, and Rotterdam, and has taught architectural theory and design at Yale University, the Ohio State University, and the University of Applied Arts in Vienna. He is currently an associate professor of architecture at the University of Michigan.
