 The phrase "spatial practice" has become a confident and widely used term to describe a variety of architectural and artistic engagements with society and the city. In many ways, it defines the new and moving boundary of the design discipline. Seeking to engage with the public and social realm—physical or virtual—with a view to shaping and transforming human action and historical experience, the Art, Design and the Public Domain (ADPD) concentration of the Masters in Design Studies (MDes) program gathers creative and ambitious individuals from all backgrounds and academic disciplines with a predilection for intervention, exhibition and public work, and a keen interest in contemporary issues of urban, historical, aesthetic and technological culture.
 The program offers a high degree of freedom for exploration and research in expanding the limits of spatial practice and integrating artists into the process of planning and design.

ADPD program participants are practicing artists, filmmakers, architects and cultural producers wishing to reframe, reboot and develop a practice of creative and imaginative speculation or art-related work with an emphasis on sophisticated thinking, advanced fabrication methodologies and techniques, and social and aesthetic engagement. The program strongly welcomes unconventional proposals for study that address emerging issues in all aspects of the changing social and cultural environment, and is designed to accommodate graduated MFAs as well as to serve the purposes of a traditional MFA program in lieu of an orthodox art academy. Students benefit from a wide variety of assets within the Harvard GSD—cultural theory, applied computation, fabrication, speculative design—and from strong links to other parts of Harvard University including Visual and Environmental Studies. In addition to collaborations with international centers of political and experimental arts, the program boasts an impressive group of associated faculty: contemporary artists and leaders of thought committed to working in a close relationship with the program and its participants.
