Simone Sfriso has been invited to the UMA Talks at the UMA, Umeå School of Architecture, Sweden on 20 September to discuss the social role of architecture. In recent years, extreme global events (pandemic, wars, climate crisis) are making the lives of marginalized communities even more precarious. As architects, it is crucial that we take into account social dynamics, needs and expected impacts, especially when it comes to building hospitals, schools, green spaces, neighbourhoods and shared spaces.

In a remarkable convergence of creative genius and technological advancement, some of the world’s most acclaimed works of architecture were built in a period of just 20 years. This period, from roughly the early 1950s to the early 1970s, produced what we commonly know today as mid-century modernism.

An excellent article on ‘Ecological Architecture + Decolonized Identity’. These two concepts are flourishing in architecture academic programs and professions. You’re welcome to draw your own conclusions. All I can say is that I see little, if any, applications in urban settings, replete with (Western) technical and cultural regulations.

*Spiritual Sustainability and Inclusive Architecture* In the interconnected world of architectural dialogue, we often find ourselves grappling with lofty ideals and intricate terminologies. Yet amidst this complexity, do we sometimes overlook the essence of our architectural pursuits? It's with this understanding that we at WIE Design approach it important to delve deeper into the spiritual underpinnings that guide our endeavor, not just as a practice, but as a dialogue with society. A recent interaction with Arch. Dong Kong, the founder and principal architect of Vector Architects 直向建筑 at YACademy special lectures, brought forth the term 'Spiritual Sustainability,' a concept that resonates with our ethos. It's about creating spaces that not only stand the test of time but also nourish the human spirit. We owe a debt of gratitude to YACademy for the chance to get in touch with the leading firms, and special thanks to Arch. RAUL PANTALEO from TAMassociati for his invaluable insights that have enriched our perspective. His guidance has been instrumental in exploring the depths of 'Universal Design' and 'Ethical Architecture.' Our latest blog is a reflection of these shared ideas. It's an invitation to explore how architecture can be adaptable, ethical, universally inclusive, and spiritually sustainable. We're not just talking to architects and designers; we're reaching out to everyone who believes in the power of well-conceived spaces. We encourage you to join this conversation by participating in the survey "Architecture for Inclusion." Your input is crucial as we strive to shape environments that embrace diversity and foster community. 🔗 Engage with our thoughts here: https://lnkd.in/dqZQfrug Let's embark on this journey together, crafting a future where architecture transcends mere construction and becomes a catalyst for unity and well-being. #UniversalDesign #EthicalArchitecture #AdaptiveDesign #SpiritualSustainability #ArchitecturalDialogue

Retreat the Line – Jakub Biernacki - Archiprix 2024 Honorable mention The graduation project of Jakub Biernacki is the outcome of a research into the legitimacy of the design profession. It calls for an interdisciplinary approach necessary for a more inclusive practice of architecture that serves the process, openly and together with the community under a collective administration. Q: What hope / do you want to achieve as a designer in the near and / or the distant future? A: My recent reflections on the state of our profession have been inspired by Neil Postman’s thought-provoking ideas from his Amusing Ourselves to Death. I find compelling parallels between the evolution of media culture and the current trajectory of architectural discourse. Contemporary architecture is increasingly influenced by commercial and external pressures, replacing thoughtful, contextual design with superficial, generic structures. This trend risks ‘amusing’ everyone to death, and I am committed to addressing this challenge by championing designs that transcend mere aesthetics. I believe that architecture should be a means to convey stories and emotions. My goal now is to learn how to break away from the notion that architecture is a self-contained discipline and embrace interdisciplinary collaboration in practice.
