Abstract: The article focuses on architect Michael Murphy's new firm, Agency Michael Murphy and Associates (AMMA), which aims to create equitable financial ownership in architectural projects.

This project serves as a prototype for a broader educational transformation and emphasizes sustainable timber sourcing and community involvement. Murphy discusses the importance of adapting architectural practices to foster ownership and economic independence within communities. [Extracted from the article]
