Arbeidsovereenkomsten, ondernemingsraden, overwerk. Het klinkt allemaal bepaald niet sexy. Maar wat als werkenden (jij dus!) een hefboom kunnen zijn voor een verandering en verduurzaming van de architectuurpraktijk? Hoe verhoudt de werkvloer zich tot systeemverandering in de architectuur? En als je je wil organiseren, hoe doe je je dat dan? In deze aflevering onderzoeken we met architecten Ewout de Bleser en Willie Vogel hoe architectuur zien als werk, niet ten koste hoeft te gaan van de schoonheid van het vak. Ana Melgerejo Lopez, architect en lid van de ondernemingsraad bij MVRDV, vertelt hoe medezeggenschap leidde tot vermindering van overwerk en geeft een handleiding medezeggenschap voor architecten. En Zamaney Menso vertelt ons hoe de vakbond eigenlijk werkt, en waarom ook jij beter lid kunt worden. -- Architectuurpodcast Respons wil een plek creëren voor het onderzoeken en bespreekbaar maken van feministische vragen in architectuur. Het is een meerstemmig project geïnitieerd door Veerle Alkemade en Catherine Koekoek nadat ze in 2019 afstudeerden bij de master architectuur in Delft. -- We komen graag in contact met méér stemmen die hun ervaringen in de architectuur met ons willen delen, zowel positief als negatief. We zijn te bereiken via instagram (www.instagram.com/re.spons/) en email (responspodcast@gmail.com). Wil je een seintje krijgen wanneer een nieuwe aflevering online staat?

In this episode, we speak to Michelle Barrett and Chris Daemmrich from Emergent Grounds in Design Education (EGDE) , a cogenerated catalogue of ongoing student and alumni practitioners organizing for antiracist, anticolonial, feminist education in the built environment design professions. This group was originally organized in June 2020 as the Alumni Collective in Solidarity/New Grounds for Design Education, and renamed Emergent Grounds in Design Education (EGDE) in August 2020. Their new name reflects the historical truth that demands for justice and equity in design education are not new but deeply rooted, and that their success will come through decentralized, networked organizing that author adrienne maree brown names ‘emergence'.

This episode of Buildings on Air we talk with Brian Campbell, a Portland based architectural worker and member of the Architecture Lobby about how the odd framing of urban policy debates can obscure power structures.

In collaboration with the Women of Architecture Student Organization at the University of Minnesota School of Architecture, 1:1 hosts a discussion with Peggy Deamer. Peggy is Professor Emerita of Yale University’s School of Architecture, principal in the firm Deamer, Studio and the founding member and the Content Coordinator of the Architecture Lobby.

Architects have up until recently remained rather reluctant to organise and act collectively, but in light of the erosion of their working conditions, is it time they began to think seriously about unionising?

This episode! First we chat with Billy Fleming about his absolutely must read article in Place Journal entitled “Design and the Green New Deal.” After, we check in with Architecture Lobby member Caitlin Watson to talk about the Lobby’s efforts to organize around the GND.Next! In our regular review segment Fun and Angry, Keefer and Anjulie Rao take a look at Olly Wainwright’s piece in The Guardian highlighting reemergent interest in public architecture practice in the UK. Could it be a transitional model for the US?And lastly! We open our mailbag and answer listener questions about architecture. Our regular mailbag correspondents are out this week, but our favorite ringers Nick Cecchi and Emily Handley are in the studio to help us out!

How should architects be working? Peggy Deamer and The Architecture Lobby poses a solution. Find more information at Rice Architecture News: https://arch.rice.edu/latest/news/t%C3%AAte-%C3%A0-t%C3%AAte-peggy-deamer

On this latest issue of the Archinect Sessions podcast Ken, Paul and Donna talk with Peggy Deamer  and Shota Vashakmadze , from the Architecture Lobby . For those of you unfamiliar, the Architecture Lobby is a non-profit organization run by and for architectural workers that advocate for the value of architecture to the public, and for the value of architectural work within the industry. The Lobby is rooted in a 10-point manifesto: Enforce labor laws that prohibit unpaid internships, unpaid overtime; refuse unpaid competitions. Reject fees based on percentage of construction or hourly fees and instead calculate value based on the money we save our clients or gain them. Stop peddling a product–buildings–and focus on the unique value architects help realize through spatial services. Enforce wage transparency across the discipline. Establish a union for architects, designers, academics, and interns in architecture and design. Demystify the architect as solo creative genius; no honors for architects who don’t acknowledge their staff. Licensure upon completion of degree. Change professional architecture organizations to advocate for the living conditions of architects. Support research about labor rights in architecture. Implement democratic alternatives to the free market system of development. One of the most recent initiatives by the Architecture Lobby is Just Design , recognizing firms exhibiting exemplary labor practices. Archinect is currently working in partnership with the Architecture Lobby to profile these firms, which we are excited to announce soon, so stay tuned. Until then, enjoy this conversation with Peggy and Shota... 

There was no live episode of Buildings on Air this month since the regular BoA crowd was away at the Venice Architecture Biennale. Luckily, we have your back and brought a piece of Venice home in the form of an audio recording! The panel, hosted by the U.S. Pavilion curators at the Biennale was organized by The Architecture Lobby, a labor advocacy group for architects we frequently discuss on the show, and designed to jive with the "Dimensions of Citizenship" theme of the U.S. Pavilion. The panel is organized into two parts and features Kamabari Baxi, Peggy Deamer, Keefer Dunn, Ane Gonzalez Lara, Nathan Friedman, Ashton Hamm, James Heard, Cesar Lopez, Margie O’Driscoll (moderating), Ron Rael, Manuel Schvartzberg, Dexter Walcott, and Mabel Wilson. BIG THANK YOU to Chelsea Kilburn for recording the event and providing the audio, as well as the whole U.S Pavilion team (especially co-curators Ann Lui, Mimi Zeiger, and Niall Atkinson) for inviting the Architecture Lobby to be a part of the procedings!

Donna, Ken and Fred all converged in the meatspace that was the AIA National Convention last week in Philadelphia – to explore the massive Expo floor, visit local architecture, vote on resolutions and oh yes, those keynotes (!) from Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Neri Oxman and Rem Koolhaas. Spoiler alert: Rem's was the most boring. For more information about the resolutions up for debate at the convention, check out our episode with Gregory Walker covering unpaid internships and WTC-truthers. And don't forget to check out our ongoing coverage of the 2016 Venice Biennale – we collaborated with the Taubman students setting up the US Pavilion, have a bunch of interviews with curators in the Features, and will soon be publishing dispatches from Venice to the News. Shownotes: Fred Scharmen's work with outer space for The Working Group on Adaptive Systems LMN Architects in Seattle named AIA's 2016 firm of the year Architecture Lobby's collaboration with Slought on (Re)Working Architecture Neri Oxman’s 'Qamar' wearable for extraterrestrial environments

Lots of summer blockbuster news to discuss on this week's podcast. The winner of the Helsinki Guggenheim competition was announced (a young husband-wife firm from Paris took the cake), SelgasCano's "psychedelic chrysalis" Serpentine Pavilion opened, and Andres Jaque's COSMO for MoMA PS1's "Warm Up" began its water cycle. And while not quite blockbusting, in what could easily be the premise for a Vincent Price flick, residents of the blighted Robin Hood Gardens dared Lord Rogers to spend a night in their quarters. Special guests Quilian Riano and Peggy Deamer of The Architecture Lobby join our news discussion this week, dropping their excellent and incisive commentary on ethical practice into every topic. We are collaborating with the Lobby to measure satisfaction with work-life balance in architecture – take the 3-question survey here.

This week on the podcast: continuing our earlier discussion on student debt, special guest (and fellow Archinector) Quilian Riano joins Paul, Amelia, Donna and Ken to discuss the Architecture Lobby's advocacy for increasing the value of architecture, both monetarily and in the public eye. We also cover Karim Rashid's recent inflammatory New York Times interview.
