In episode 11, series 3 of A is for Architecture I spoke with architect Chris Dyson, principal of Chris Dyson Architects, and Dominic Bradbury, about his (their) new book, Chris Dyson Architects: Tradition and Modernity, published by Lund Humphries this year. Chris Dyson Architects' practice has a reputation for sensitive modern work in historic contexts, which the book documents, describing in text and lovely images what the blurb says is the practice's works' ‘overriding sense of different elements – be they material, temporal or cultural – coming together into coherent wholes [making] architecture that feels old and new at the same time.' Chris Dyson Architects: Tradition and Modernity is available on the Lund Humphries website here. Chris' practice website is here, Instagram here, X here and LinkedIn here. There are a few nice bits online with Chris, such as this profile in Building Design here, and a couple of videos on YouTube - Architects at Home and one on preserving and enhancing the heritage of The Goodsyard here. Dominic's website is here; he has written a huge number of books on material culture, which are certainly worth a look. His Instagram is here, LinkedIn here, and X here. Old-new. What a fusion, almost as Jacques Lu Cont almost put it. Available on Spotify, iTunes, Google Podcasts and Amazon Music.

Find out more on our website: https://bit.ly/3xtsVSO What do we imagine when we think of an eco-house? An insulated, solar-powered new-build? An old building recycled for a new use? City livery company, the Worshipful Company of Chartered Architects (WCCA) supported by the London Festival of Architecture (LFA) plans to launch a competition to build a temporary pavilion in the heart of the City of London, in Paternoster Square, to inspire people to consider the future of sustainable living. While the brief is highly flexible, the starting point is the house – architects are being asked to consider living, dining, kitchen, bedroom and circulation spaces. The pavilion is intended to explore new ways of building; the challenge for participants is to combine new thinking in architecture with the latest technologies to create a memorable, inspiring structure. With its high-profile location in the shadow of St Paul's Cathedral, the project is expected to draw an impressive calibre of submissions and attract national and international attention. The pavilion, which will be installed for three months in 2023, is likely to welcome more than 100,000 visitors and could be relocated to other cities as part of a touring programme. The catalyst for the initiative has been the Mayor of the City of London's Climate Action Strategy, along with the WCCA's ongoing sustainability theme. The City has a history of enlightened patronage when it comes to environmental leadership and design – the square mile features some of the UK's most advanced buildings and is home to world-leaders in green finance. The WCCA aims to unite the two, while showcasing its public activities and role in promoting high-quality architecture. Chris Dyson will introduce the competition, the remarkable site and opportunities for leaders in sustainable finance to get involved. This is being driven on behalf of Chris' Architects Livery WCCA, for which he will be master in September 2022 through to September 2023. The proposed site is in front of the new hall designed by Christopher Wren, The Temple Bar [TBT] in paternoster square. Speaker: Chris Dyson is an architect, principal of Chris Dyson Architects and Upper Warden of the Worshipful Company of Chartered Architects. Before setting up his own practice in 2004, he was a Design Director at Farrells and a senior designer at Sir James Stirling and Michael Wilford Associates. His firm, Chris Dyson Architects is an award-winning studio based in Spitalfields with a reputation for intelligent conservation work, sensitive building design and creative collaborations with artists. Recent projects include a large scheme within Bishopsgate Goodsyard, the renovation of Tracey Emin's former studio, a new building for Harrow Arts Centre and the mixed-use Albion Works in Hackney. Chris is also a design advisor to the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea and the Corporation of London.
If anything can bind together nearly 400 pupils and 100 school staff in challenging circumstances, it's love. And love is in plentiful supply at Parklands. The pupils at Parklands Primary School, located on the Seacroft estate in Leeds, often face significant hardship. Children start at the school significantly behind their peers nationally, especially in terms of their language and literacy. Yet the school is famed for outstanding learning – both in terms of Ofsted judgement and, more importantly, in achieving amazing outcomes for its learners. In this inspiring book, head teacher Chris Dyson shares the story of how he has steered the school towards the seemingly impossible educational dream of high achievement, personalised support and complete inclusion. He explains how the school setting can be a place where there is love but also hope and relentless ambition for children, and reflects on the steps that he and his staff have put in place to make this a reality for Parklands' pupils. Chris delves into how this culture and climate of love drives behaviour and decision-making throughout the school – and, as a result, how this creates a safe, loving environment in which all of its learners can thrive. Chris also provides insights into how the leadership team goes about raising funds for the school, and how they choose to spend it on both curricular and extracurricular projects. And, furthermore, how the school broadens its pupils' experiences and cultural capital by means of residential trips, in-school productions, and sports and arts provision. An uplifting read for all teachers and school leaders. Chapters include: Chapter 1: Love Chapter 2: Leadership Chapter 3: Learning Chapter 4: Fun Day Friday and the Best Seats in the House Chapter 5 Looking After Your Staff Chapter 6 Achievement Chapter 7 Parents, Community and Family Chapter 8 Taking Care of Business Naylor's Natter- the book: Inspired by interviews from the popular education podcast of the same name, Naylor's Natter brings together a wealth of advice from the most influential voices in education today. In this exciting, one-of-a-kind book, Phil Naylor revisits the very best interviews from four years of education podcasting, drawing on the advice and opinions from some of the world's most innovative educators, including Doug Lemov, E. D. Hirsch, Pritesh Raichura and Mary Myatt. Divided into five key areas – behaviour, leadership, pastoral care, CPD, and the future of teaching and learning – this book is perfect for primary and secondary ECTs, teachers and school leaders looking for new takes on hot topics, as well as tips and strategies to improve their practice. There are QR codes throughout linking to the episodes discussed, so you can listen to the interviews and explore the topics in even more detail. Full of valuable insights into the current state of education, and what the road ahead may look like, this is an indispensable tool for starting conversations and transforming the way you teach.
In this episode, Toria talks to proud Headteacher of Parklands Primary School in Leeds, Chris Dyson , about how building a school on love can yield the most amazing results. Chris believes that If anything can bind together nearly 400 pupils and 100 school staff in challenging circumstances, it's love. And love is in plentiful supply at Parklands. Chris was brought up in a single-parent household and received free school clothes and free school meals himself as a child, which has meant that the connection between his early life and that of Parklands' pupils is built on understanding. He believes that education is the key to making the future brighter, and he is fuelled by a desire to provide his pupils with the best education and opportunities possible. Chris has recently written a book - Parklands, A School Built On Love - in which he recounts the story of how he steered the school towards the seemingly impossible educational dream of high achievement, personalised support and complete inclusion. He explains how the school setting can be a place where there is love but also hope and relentless ambition for children, and reflects on the steps that he and his staff have put in place to make this a reality for Parklands' pupils.Chris delves into how this culture and climate of love drives behaviour and decision-making throughout the school – and, as a result, how this creates a safe, loving environment in which all of its learners can thrive.Chris also provides insights into how the leadership team goes about raising funds for the school, and how they choose to spend it on both curricular and extracurricular projects.

Andy won Le Mans with Jaguar in 1988 and is a three time winner of the Daytona 24hrs and a two time winner of the Sebring 12hrs which makes him one of only a handful of drivers to win Sports cars triple crown. Andy talks about cycling 30 miles each way to Silverstone with his cheese and pickle sandwiches to watch the cars racing at Silverstone as a young Boy and making the step up to racing himself and winning the British Formula three championship and the Macau GP. An incident with Jan Lammers in the Macau GP bizarrely led to a friendship with Jan who was also racing for Jaguar in sports cars, this opened the door for Andy to test for Jaguar and become one of their factory drivers and he repaid their faith by winning Le Mans for them in 1988. Andy has raced for Dyson racing in the ALMS and has been a huge part of their success along with Chris Dyson, James Weaver and Butch Leitzinger, Andy tells us about his horrifying accident while testing at Mosport where the car flipped several times in an accident that lasted well over 200 metres.

KERI: Hey guys! It’s Keri TV. I have a very special guest today. I’m super excited to introduce Chris Dyson, a fellow colleague at the agency. We have something we’re so excited to share with you that’s become a little bit more mainstream in the agent circles. It started as an agency exclusive, and it’s called the PLS, which stands for the... CHRIS: Pocket Listing Service. KERI: Pocket Listing Service. We’re going to explain a little bit today on our episode on what that means and how it benefits you, agents, and why It’s so great. KERI: First, to start things off, what is a pocket? That can be a very confusing term. Pocket is slang for listings that we have that are not on the MLS. If something’s on the multiple listing service, It’s pushed out to Zillow, RedFin, and every website possible. It’s a pocket, so It’s something secretive that you have in your pocket. CHRIS: Correct. KERI: It’s an off-market property. Off-market, but with sellers that are willing to sell. That being said, Chris, tell us a little bit more about the PLS. Thanks for being here today, too. CHRIS: My pleasure, thanks for having me. Very exciting. KERI: Very exciting. CHRIS: It’s what Keri perfectly described. Pocket listings have actually become more and more prominent in our market, as you know. Frankly, it was born from frustration in, as you know as as well, we would get sent hundreds, probably, sometimes thousands of emails a month from clients saying that I have this pocket listing. I’m looking for that pocket listing. Frankly, I was frustrated. There was nowhere we could go and search for that information when you needed it. If the email came and you didn’t have a client, and it was gone and it was forgotten about. KERI: Yeah. CHRIS: It was really born to try to fix that problem. To have somewhere agents could find information that they’re already sharing in an email. If that could live in a searchable platform, that was the goal. KERI: Yeah, and it’s amazing. Who gets too many emails? I know I do. I’m trying to find that random email that had a pocket when you get a new call if the new buyer is just super hectic. CHRIS: That was really the impetus that started the platform. KERI: Cool. How does it work? You’ve got the platform. Tell us more about how it functions and helps agents and clients. CHRIS: The biggest key with PLS is that it is an agent-only platform. KERI: Okay. CHRIS: Obviously, the conundrum is, how to do you market an off-market property? KERI: It’s off-market. CHRIS: Exactly. What does that mean? KERI: How do you do that? CHRIS: The only way you can really do that effectively, the key with it, is that these are sellers who want to adopt an off-market strategy. They either demand discretion, which in the big cities, especially Los Angeles, we have a lot of celebrities who don’t necessarily want their information in the public realm. KERI: Exactly. CHRIS: I don’t know an agent who doesn’t have a client that would say, I will sell it at this number, but I don’t want to go to the hassle of putting it on the market. KERI: Exactly. CHRIS: What do you do with those? KERI: Hey guys, want my very expensive listing? CHRIS: Yeah! The key is to make the platform only accessible to agents. That, one, helps keep the information out of the public domain, which is what the seller is asking for in the first place. Secondly what that does, which is probably the most important thing that this site is designed to try to achieve, it lets agents leverage this information to give us all a competitive edge. I think what’s really become a huge problem or an issue for agents is now the MLS is sharing information with the Zillows, the Trulias, and the Redfins. Clients are saying, why do I need an agent? Everything’s available online. KERI: Right. CHRIS: Part of what the PLS allows the agent community as a whole to do is take the information that sellers want to be kept out of the public realm and leverage that to give us all the information that our clients don’t have access to, and in turn, make everybody more valuable. KERI: Very valuable What happens if somebody’s got their property listed on the PLS and nothing happens? Say there’s no showings or offers. What happens next? CHRIS: This is probably where, again, the PLS can be valuable to potentially all listings. I’m sure you have clients that think the house is worth more than you think it’s worth. KERI: Not at all! CHRIS: Not at all, right? One of the coolest things that we’ve seen over the last year is that agents have used the PLS to list properties in a ‘coming soon’ capacity, before putting them on the MLS. KERI: Ah, okay. CHRIS: That’s right. In a lot of instances, the property is sold, which is amazing. A lot of agents have actually used it as a tool to get a price reduction out of their sellers. Those sellers who think it’s too much, if it hasn’t moved and they haven’t gotten the activity, it’s given them the ammunition and the data to go back to the seller and say, listen. The agent’s have seen this. We haven’t got a call. Let’s put it out and get it onto the MLS at a more realistic number. Zero days on market. That has been a really cool thing to see honestly. KERI: Yeah. CHRIS: I’m delighted that that’s really happening. KERI: Because days on market can translate to a lack of value. If something’s on the market too long, it becomes a stale listing. You know. The whole nine yards. So the type of agents that are on the PLS, when you say to your seller, it’s been on here and say we haven’t had much traction, who’s in this, besides the agency’s agents? These are some of the top agents in the nation. What other types of agents? How do we explain to our seller’s who’s looking? CHRIS: I mean, the majority of our agents are LA based. KERI: LA based? CHRIS: It’s only effective if you have a critical mass of agents in any particular place. KERI: Exactly. Those agents are on the site. CHRIS: That’s right. We now have just a shade under six thousand agents. KERI: Six thousand agents, oh my gosh. CHRIS: I include them. If you can reel off all the top agents in town, they all have memberships. KERI: Mh-hmm. CHRIS: You can really argue to your seller that the best agents in the business are going to see your information KERI: Mh-hmm. CHRIS: If it’s not selling, maybe we should rethink our strategy, going to the MLS. KERI: That’s an amazing, coming-soon platform, to make sure that you hit the market at the right price that attracts buyers. CHRIS: Yeah. KERI: Brilliant! I didn’t even think about that. CHRIS: See? KERI: What about for buyers that are looking? How would they benefit working with agents who are members of the PLS? CHRIS: Again, it gives those buyer’s agents access of entry that their clients don’t have. It makes you look better. KERI: Okay! We like that. CHRIS: That’s exactly. KERI: Good. CHRIS: I think, in any business, someone’s only going to work with you if you offer value and have information they don’t have access too. KERI: Exactly. CHRIS: Part of this is to try to give that to the agents and help protect and ensure the industry as a whole, Keri. KERI: Yeah. CHRIS: That’s the plan. KERI: Transparency and value is the highest of important qualities all our clients want. They want agents that are doing something, that are different, and that provide valuable information, because there’s so much of that online. They can get properties and comps. They can get all the tools they need, but something like this creates another echelon in our industry. CHRIS: Yes. KERI: Which is amazing. CHRIS: Perfect. That’s it. KERI: What are some examples of times where PLS has made a huge impact? What are some of the success stories you’ve heard of? CHRIS: Listen, again, I’m delighted to say that I get texts and emails all the time. I actually got a text from Marshall Peck, mentioning him. Marshal listed a house. He texted me in the morning to say that he had a house that was coming on the flats, Beverly Hills. He put it on and then texted me back half an hour later and said, just got three calls in ten minutes. Now, I’m able to go and actually get the listing signed. We got a listing signed as a result of putting it on the site that he didn’t have the executed contract in full. KERI: That’s amazing. CHRIS: That’s unbelievable. KERI: That’s a huge benefit. Yeah. CHRIS: Yeah. We’ve had deals done, we had a deal that we followed. An agent brought a property on at six point five and sold it for seven point two within in a week. KERI: What! Multiple offers off-market. CHRIS: Multiple offers off-market, yep. KERI: That’s brilliant. CHRIS: A lady at PLG estates, Carey Moore. This was for a property in Griffith Park. She got her asking price through the site. It’s really working. KERI: Amazing. CHRIS: It’s amazing. I’m delighted. KERI: I actually had an interesting case. I met some buyers, some clients, at an open house. They knew eight other agents. They were like, Keri, we know this person. We know purple bricks. We know all these different agents who are willing to give us money back, this whole thing. When I met them for the second time, I let them know about the PLS, and it showed them inventory on there that wasn’t available through their other agent friends who were on the MLS and they were like, Keri, we love you. Can’t wait to work with you. CHRIS: Amazing. KERI: Yeah. It’s been an incredible tool in this day, with all the information out there. Yeah. Okay, speaking of the PLS and some of these beautiful properties, I was just looking through, a couple days ago, I saw this one on Oriole in West LA. Not West LA. The one for twenty-nine million, that was just listed. That is unbelievable. I’ll show you a picture. CHRIS: It’s a cool house. KERI: A few pictures of that one. CHRIS: Yeah. KERI: Then the one in Malibu, on Murphy. CHRIS: Yeah. KERI: Those views are amazing. The one in Playa on Trolleyway, that’s very rare for that area, on the beach there. CHRIS: I mean, we’re very lucky to have a ton of really relevant inventory, and, quite frankly, if you’re not on there, you’re unnecessarily putting yourself at a disadvantage. I mean, God bless what everyone wants to do, but this is really information you should have access to. And it’s free. Still. KERI: And it’s free! CHRIS: There’s no excuse. KERI: It’s free. We like that. CHRIS: Yeah. Still free. KERI: Definitely, if you’re an agent, let us know if you’re interested in the PLS, and if you’re looking to work with an agent, make sure they are a member of the PLS so you have all the access. Here Chris, I know you’re busy with this entire new amazing website and obviously servicing all your clients. CHRIS: Yeah. KERI: Thank you so much for being here. CHRIS: My pleasure. KERI: I can’t wait to post this. Thank you guys for watching. See you next Tuesday on Keri TV.

The first of three expansive (and nearly politics-free!) episodes with Chris Dyson, we discuss the mystical route leading to his founding of The Hof, his hostel in the Cordillera Blanca range of the Peruvian Andes and the difficulties he encountered in being a gringo outsider trying to integrate into the nearby Quechuan community, including the multiple robberies endured during his six and a half years living in Peru. We also discuss working at an ayuahuasca retreat, "The Personal Peace Corp" and the Dennis Doctrine, tribalism, non-caucasian based racism, apocalypse cultism, the epidemic of human disconnection, the related death of the sense of community, and more.
