Phillip M. Crosby is an Adjunct Faculty member in the Master of Urban Design—Future Cities program in the College of Architecture and the Built Environment at Jefferson University. His current research focuses on the relationship between cities and film, with a particular focus on how cities are depicted in science fiction films. His work explores the science fiction sub-genre of solarpunk as a tool for exploring the future of sustainable cities.

He is the co-author with Kate Wingert-Playdon of the book Library as Stoa: Public Space and Academic Mission in Snøhetta’s Charles Library (ORO Editions, 2021), which examines the role of the academic library in relation to both the campus and the city. He was the Associate Editor (with Megan Born, Helene Furjan, and Lily Jencks) of the book DIRT, which was published by The MIT Press in 2012. DIRT included Phillip’s essay entitled “Holey Urbanisms,” which examined how the postwar discourse of the group of architects known as Team 10 has been an influence on the contemporary urban discourses of Landscape Urbanism and Ecological Urbanism.

Phillip is the founding principal of DUAL:workshop, a research-based, multi-disciplinary design practice based in Philadelphia. The work of DUAL:workshop focuses on both large-scaled urban design frameworks and small-scaled tactical urbanist interventions. Each project, regardless of scale, is envisioned as an opportunity to blur the boundaries between different disciplines—operating across the fields of architecture, landscape architecture, urban design, and public policy. In addition, DUAL-workshop attempts to build community through participatory design processes and pro-bono social impact projects.
