Commissioner Jones is an Associate Professor of Architecture and Director of the Master of Architecture program at Cal Poly Pomona, and a founding partner of the Los Angeles-based design practice fièvre + jones. His creative and intellectual work is at the intersection of architecture, community engagement, and the urban experience, with particular attention to environmental equity, belonging, and the right to the city through the lens of infrastructure.
His professional work targets underserved communities affected by the absence of sufficient infrastructure or its domineering presence. Projects include community arts facilities for the Watts House Project, an art-based facility near the Noah Purifoy Outdoor Desert Art Museum, and artist studios and residences at the Tekrema Center for the Arts in New Orleans. Jones is the author of A Distant Bridge | Un pont à part (MétisPresses, 2016) and (IN)FORMAL L.A.: The Space of Politics (eVolo Press, 2014). He has published in Architect Magazine, Architectural Record, Domus, Harvard Design Magazine, and Log.
