In this special episode of TheSquare, we continue our series exploring the intersection of architecture and film. We dive into The Brutalist, a three-hour cinematic odyssey that captures the power, tension, and artistry of design. With our first-ever guest in the Architecture & Film segment, Barak Epstein of the historic Texas Theatre, we discuss what makes this film a compelling portrait of an architect's vision, ambition, and struggle.

This week on The Square, we're back with our annual tradition: unpacking two iconic films through a design lens. What do "Die Hard" and "It's a Wonderful Life" have in common? At first glance, maybe not much—one's a high-octane action flick, the other a sentimental holiday classic. But dive deeper with us, and you'll find surprising parallels in their themes, characters, and even architectural settings. Join Brandon Carmichael and James Adams as they explore how these two films reflect their eras, from the suburban dreams of Bedford Falls to the towering corporate ambitions of Nakatomi Plaza. We'll discuss how architecture plays a role in storytelling, the emotional impact of design, and the subtle messages about community, sacrifice, and redemption. Plus, we settle the ultimate debate: Is "Die Hard" really a Christmas movie? (Spoiler: Yippee-ki-yay, yes it is.) Whether you're here for the design insights, the holiday spirit, or just a little Bruce Willis and Jimmy Stewart love, this episode has it all.

Award-winning architect and designer Umesh Kelkar, Project Designer II in the Aviation Studio, spills on his Summer Design Competition-winning project, "Deep Rooted Ellum." Intended to revitalize the district in the Southeast Dalla neighborhood, Unmesh's vision for a vibrant mixed-use development on the Southeast side of Dallas garnered critical acclaim from the Urban Land Institute and AIA Dallas as well as the Texas Society of Architects and won the FW Land Award.   Long known for its deep roots in Dallas and contributing to the urban fabric as the center of art, music, history, and culture, this mixed-use plan draws upon jazz music and blues, creating a vibrant, connected environment focused on vitality, richness, and cultural flourishes. His aviation and public spaces background informs his project, which the City of Dallas embraced.   Influenced by Jane Jacobs, the renowned writer American-Canadian journalist, author, theorist, and activist who influenced urban studies, sociology, and economics. Her book The Death and Life of Great American Cities (1961) argued that "urban renewal" and "slum clearance" did not respect the needs of city dwellers. Profoundly influential in changing the built environment, she coined the terms "mixed primary uses" and "eyes on the street" and remains one of the most influential thinkers and leaders of 21st-century urban architecture.

Jefferson Street—the rhythm and lifeblood of North Nashville ceased to exist when Interstate I-40 roared through the neighborhood and split the community. The once vibrant district rich in history, culture, and economic prosperity sharply fell into poverty and decline. In an optimistic hope to restore and resurrect North Nashville, a team of architecture students from Tuskegee University designed Selah, a mixed-use commercial development offering museums, learning enrichment facilities, and business centers interspersed with outdoor walking paths, gardens, and greenspace to serve local residents within the underprivileged community. The design garnered first place in the National Organization of Minority Architecture Students (NOMAS) for the 2022 Barbara G. Laurie Design Competition. In this episode, Team Captains Trenton Scott and Tyler Littles share the video and concept behind their team's passion project. Join us as these fifth-year architecture students explore how design can shape our vision for the future and reclaim underserved communities.  #nomas #minorityarchitects #studentarchitects #nashville  Visit: https://www.Corgan.com/  Also connect with us on: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/CorganInc/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CorganInc/  Twitter: https://twitter.com/CorganInc  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/corgan  Video Produced by: Corgan Have Questions?

With a renewed focus of how the built environment impacts the wellbeing of its users, Corgan's Education practice expands typical notions of mental health to consider the unique challenges of students through their educational journey. Education design has long considered how best to support the mental health of students including those with anxiety, stress, depression or formal diagnosis such as Autism or ADHD. However, in this episode of TheSquare, Chloe Hosid, Design Researcher at Corgan, shares the several other mental, social, emotional, and behavioral experiences in student development that profoundly influence how they perceive and engage with their space, their curriculum, others, and themselves. From the pressure to grow up faster to developing a sense of self, learn how education design can better meet students where they are—responding more empathetically to how these challenges evolve through their academic career and creating spaces that empower them as the leaders of tomorrow.   #corgan #education #architecture #design #students #mentalhealth Visit: https://www.Corgan.com/ Also connect with us on: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/CorganInc/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CorganInc/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/CorganInc LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/corgan   Video Produced by: Corgan Have Questions?

One of Corgan's Project Specialists of the Education Studio, Tai started as a summer intern after coming to the US from the Ukraine to pursue her education in architecture, and she has been here ever since. After watching her mother work as a math and physics school teacher and learning the ins and outs of the profession, designing schools comes naturally to her. “Kids are curious creatures by nature, and teachers want to do a good job, so we help by designing buildings where they can work together,” she says. Despite the unrest in Ukraine, she says the communal aspect of the Ukrainian people remains strong as they are kindling a spirit of courage and positivity. “Even though the war has ravaged much of the country, people still find moments of celebration and joy, and hope to rebuild a new cultural identity expressed through architecture.”  For creative expression, Tai speaks three languages and is learning Korean, listens to K-Pop, and plays bass guitar. Find out how the Ukrainian culture and her upbringing influence Tai as an architectural designer in this episode of TheSquare.  #corgan #architecture #education #Ukraine  Visit: https://www.Corgan.com/  Also connect with us on: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/CorganInc/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CorganInc/  Twitter: https://twitter.com/CorganInc  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/corgan  Video Produced by: Corgan Have Questions?

Brain Health is at the top of everyone's mind these days. New research is finding we can optimize peak performance, rebound from head injuries, and live happy and healthy lives well into advanced age, according to Jennifer Zientz with UTD's Center for BrainHealth. The power of neuroplasticity makes possible expanding the potential and ability of the brain. Tapping into new research uncovers powerful tools to reorganize, restructure, change, and in many ways retrain the brain.   With strong research to demonstrate how our mental wellness and brains are impacted by the consequences of rumination, negative thought cycles, and multi-tasking and how more positive cognitive strategies can encourage a new pattern of responses and experiences, the concept of neuroplasticity offers an opportunity to reshape how we move through our world and our lives.  Similarly, in this Curious Conversation, we learn how to become an architect of our own brain through Strategic Memory and Advanced Reasoning Tactics (SMART). Jennifer shares how the research and tools of neuroplasticity can empower how you work and think to unleash your brain's greatest potential.  #brainhealth #multitasking #neuroplasticity  Visit: Also connect with us on: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/CorganInc/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CorganInc/  Twitter: https://twitter.com/CorganInc  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/corgan  Video Produced by: Corgan Have Questions?
