AIA|LA & SoCal NOMA Present… THE HUMAN BEHIND THE ARCHITECT: Series Kick-off Stories have been used to share learning and knowledge for thousands of years. A good story engages our curiosity, emotions, and imagination. Stories take many forms, but they usually have some elements in common. Rather than a list of dry facts, stories have a narrative or sequence that introduces people or characters. Date & Time: Thursday, April 25, 2024 6 - 8pm PDT Cost: Free Location: Cuningham @ 8665 Hayden Place Culver City, 90232 AIA|LA & SoCal NOMA J.E.D.I. committee invites you to join “The Human Behind the Architect” series to listen to the journey of four local architects. This is not an architectural conversation. Speakers will dive deeper into their journey telling us the challenges that made them the person who they are today. We respond to stories, particularly when there is emotional detail, and remember information given in story form much more vividly. The mission of the J.E.D.I. Committee is to advance issues of justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion in the architecture industry, and these anecdotes are foundational as we weave the fibers of all of our stories to build the fabric of our field. #aialosangeles #socalnoma #cuninghamgroup

Award winning Bachelor Part 1 Architecture student at Scott Sutherland School of Architecture.
Seems like a harsh critic towards teachers, but in reality it targets the Academy in general. In my opinion, given that our Scott Sutherland School of Architecture & Built Environment - Robert Gordon University offers such a technical/construction approach to our career, why not create temporary experimental modules that combine disciplines? [And then ask later if RIBA is happy with it] Or everything has to be that rigid? Regarding the Modelmaking topic: Imagine mixing Material Science and Biology with Architecture. Proposed module: - 'Bio-Integrated Design' (Architecture + Science School) Then mix Arts and Crafts with Bio-Integrated Design. Proposed module: - 'Modelmaking in the Digital Age' (Architecture + Gray's School of Art) Exercising on traditional techniques with traditional (and new) materials. I really cannot possibly believe it is that hard. RGU has incredible infrastructure and workshop spaces for this. And I don't mean simply getting us a lecture from a Mycologist, or a Stonemason, which is nice. But actually make workshops that become appendixes of the Studio projects, and let students have a continual sensorial experience across the career. How many students go through Architectural School without having tried traditional model-making techniques? It should be a crime! You would hear sometimes that students might 'not want to get their hands dirty' - But in reality, I suspect Uni doesn't offer attractive model-making-immersive subjects. And they limit themselves to laser-cutting and 3D printing - work that we don't even do ourselves! I think this can be achieved! The more interdisciplinary, the richer the experience and knowledge acquired. What about traditional Scottish crafts? (those linked with architecture - like granite masonry) Why wait for them to be lost? Students are missing out on so much! Marie Airth Silvia Bassanese Jamie Yorkston, MCIAT, FHEA Peter Exley Maria Sanchez Prof Lynn Kilbride I humbly open this thread. And I am happy to discuss further.
An advice to students… and a critique - by Anders Lendager. Anders Lendager presents a critique of traditional architectural education, arguing that it continues to promote outdated practices incompatible with today’s urgent sustainability challenges. During this conversation, Anders encouraged young architects to question established norms and challenge the outdated practices often promoted within architectural education. “We need a radical shift,” he says. ▶️ Anders Lendager is the founder and creative director of Lendager. He participated in our event in Copenhagen this past September, and you can find his full talk on our website under “Archive” https://lnkd.in/dgcasw_6. This statement is from the round table discussion. Feel free to comment or send us a DM if you’d like the video link.

Director of Operations at Ennead Architects | AIA Board Member | Fulbright Senior Scholar | Professor
From technological advances to balancing the ever changing impacts of climate change; as architects we can use adaptive leadership and creative thinking to positively impact communities. Some of us began our careers hand drafting, shifted to AutoCAD, and now manage the efficiencies of teams working in Revit, Rhino and Grasshopper. The continuous dialogue on the potential impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to our industry is now a prevalent topic and the rate at which change happens is even more rapid. “AIA is working to transform the day-to-day practice of architecture to achieve a zero-carbon, resilient, healthy, just, equitable built environment, for everyone.” This is an enormous task, but it is important to have collaborative thinking with a focus on mission. (Thank you to The American Institute of Architects (AIA) for encouraging me to step out of my comfort zone. Anyone with "introvert" tendencies can relate.) #FutureFocused #adaptability #resiliency #adaptiveleadership #creativethinking #sustainabledesign #communitydesign #equitabledesign
