Marcus Carter

Assistant Professor, School of Architecture, RPI

Marcus’ interests lie in the machinations of the contemporary urban environment as well as architecture’s catalytic potential in this climate. Marcus is a partner of OBJECT TERRITORIES, a critical design practice operating from Hong Kong and New York, working at the intersection of architecture, landscape and urbanism at scales ranging from strategic interventions to architectural projects and regional master plans. Prior to founding OBJECT TERRITORIES, Marcus was a senior associate at Steven Holl Architects and designer at KPF and RAMSA. He has broad experience on projects in North America, Asia, and Europe including master plans, office & hotel towers, institutional buildings and residential projects. Marcus holds a Bachelor of Architecture from the University of Kansas, studying in Rome during that time, and a Master of Architecture from the Yale School of Architecture. While at Yale, he edited issue 38 of Perspecta: The Yale Architectural Journal, titled Architecture After All. In addition to RPI, Marcus has taught at Washington University, the Parsons School of Design and the New York Institute of Technology.
