EntreArchitect Podcast with Mark R. LePage
Arts:Design
Join us as we dive into the world of waterfront architecture with Dena Prastos, the visionary founder and CEO of Indigo River. In this podcast, Dena shares her remarkable journey from being a licensed architect with a civil engineering background to pioneering the concept of a "waterfront architect."
Through her firm, Indigo River, Dena leads a team of innovative minds dedicated to progressive waterfront architecture, resilience, and climate adaptation. Drawing on her Alaskan roots and her deep appreciation for nature's resilience, Dena discusses how her upbringing has shaped her approach to designing in some of the world's harshest conditions.
From the bustling shores of New York Harbor to projects around the globe, Dena and her team tackle challenges at the water's edge with a transdisciplinary lens, blending design, engineering, and technology. With a focus on climate adaptation, Indigo River's portfolio includes transformative projects like the East Side Coastal Resiliency in Manhattan, Robert De Niro's Wildflower Studios in Astoria, and the River Ring in Williamsburg.
Join us for an insightful conversation with Dena Prastos as we explore the intersection of design, nature, and technology in shaping resilient waterfront communities.
