Maymind’s design and creative work is characterized by an interest in conceiving of history as that which can be reanimated and recomposed as an expanding archive of images, fragments, norms, and models through graphic reproduction, redrawing, and other tools of manipulation in order to create a space in which to reconsider such disciplinary clichés as precedent, originality, rigor, and repetition. His design work has been exhibited in Inscriptions: Architecture Before Speech at Harvard University Graduate School of Design, The Drawing Show at Yale University School of Architecture, REJECTED: Architectural Drawings and Their Stories at The Ohio State University Knowlton School of Architecture, and Treatise: Why Write Alone? at the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts, among others.

Previously, Maymind taught at the USC School of Architecture, UCLA Architecture and Urban Design, Southern California Institute of Architecture, Cornell University, and the University of Michigan, where he was awarded the 2012-2013 Walter B. Sanders Fellowship. He has lectured widely at institutions in the United States and internationally. Maymind holds a Bachelor of Science in Architecture from The Ohio State University’s Knowlton School of Architecture, a Master of Architecture from Yale University, and a PhD in Architecture from UCLA.
