The Hearing Architecture podcast, proudly sponsored by Brickworks, presents Again and Again and Again, a mini-series hosted by Hilary Duff. Each week, we will bring you interviews and conversations as we seek better ways to understand, harness and deploy the expertise and knowledge of professionals currently within the design community, at home and abroad. Our guests are all experts on circularity within the building industry and share the aim to display that waste is not an accident but the consequence of decisions made at the design stage. Here is our opportunity. We, as designers, have an opportunity to do better. The architectural endeavour yields two distinctive outcomes, the addition of a building and the subtraction of a void. As construction takes shape -a curated assembly of materials, a corresponding void emerges in a location where these materials originally sourced, generally from elsewhere in the world. For years, designers have only been asked to consider result one: the building. But we've entered an age where architecture can no longer look over the impact of where and how materials are exploited. In this episode, I meet with Andy Coward, a Danish and UK-based structural engineer with 17 years of experience designing buildings and bridges, burning man installations, Apple stores, football stadiums, and architectural offices. Andy spent many of these years as an associate partner at Foster + Partners in London, where he first dappled in architectural projects. A shift to Scandinavia with his appointment as head of engineering at Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) in Copenhagen continued this trajectory, ignited his search for innovation within practice, and furthered his investigation into how structural materials can address climate change. His search for a fresh approach to making, designing, and using concrete led to the founding of his current practice Net Zero projects and one of his first offerings: the low-carbon structural system Minimass. Many within this circularity field talk about the requirement to move away from concrete and cement as a material. But here, we see Andy taking a different approach. Recognising that the world cannot stop its addiction to concrete overnight, he is instead advocating within the existing system helping it shift towards a better future. He asks how we can best use this material, how we can reduce our quantities, and be tactical in our composition of materials to allow concrete structures to live for longer. It's a logical evolution of a design philosophy: use the right material in the right place for the right purpose – no more, no less. In our discussion, Andy talks about two big challenges faced during construction: 1. The cost of materials: people have and will always fret about this. It's not new. 2. Carbon – A matter finally and importantly garnering more interest. It is becoming more and more apparent that these two items are intrinsically tied to each other and will only become more so as the availability of materials decreases, and the impacts of carbon become more apparent on our environment. Andy was challenged to create a system that focuses on reducing both at the same time. Andy notes that he is not a materials scientist – he will leave the invention of new materials to others. He is not a ‘robot' guy, not a software programmer, but is a designer. He has questioned how he can use this background to create a system which uses less. Less material and less labour. Today we begin our discussion with an analysis of our past, and how there may be clues to suggest the types of thinking we should apply to our current practice. Among other things we discuss the spectrum of beautiful and innovative concrete structures which emerged during the 20 century and modernism. Parabolic shells and thin arches with their fantastic use of minimal material and with a focus on forces in tension and compression. They emerged from a time when materials were scarce but labour was cheap. Our discussion today queries what will happen in the future where materials are again in short supply, but the cost of construction means we must think differently. This has been Again&Again&Again, a mini-series of Hearing Architecture, proudly sponsored by Brickworks, made possible with the support of the Alastair Swayn Foundation, and recorded during a period of residency with the Danish Arts Association in Copenhagen. Thank you so much for listening and thank you to our international guest Andy Coward, of Net Zero Projects. Thank you for sharing how your innovative structural solutions open many benefits, opportunities and push the boundaries of the rigid systems we work within. Let's watch this space and we look forward to speaking with you again in the future. Our sponsor Brickworks also produces architecture podcasts hosted by Tim Ross.

More and more people are living in our cities and as urban populations grow, so does the need to provide housing. Yet, building homes is often perceived to come at a high price: the destruction of natural landscapes and biodiversity. What are the innovative solutions in this space? And, is there political will to help promote these projects?In this panel discussion, we were joined by Anis Abou Zaki, Partner in Environmental Design and Sustainability at Foster + Partners; Aileen Evans, CEO of Grand Union Housing Group; Dusty Gedge, International Ambassador for the European Federation of Green Roof and Wall Associations and Jess Kennedy, Climate & Sustainability Associate Director at Arup. The discussion was moderated by Kate Turner, a consultant, working in the space between decarbonisation and the digital sector. This event was hosted in partnership with Mars Wrigley UK and recorded as part of a live webinar on 6 November 2023.
A zero-carbon world will continue to need high-quality built environments. To achieve full decarbonisation across these environments, companies cannot focus just on their own emission reduction but also on supporting an overall net-zero transition of buildings ' from raw materials, to finished structure and including their heating, cooling and management. Panellists will drive forward the discussion around how to join up these efforts. Featuring Nicola Yates OBE (CEO, Connected Places Catapult), Rob Lane (Chief Property Officer, Clarion Housing Group), Chris Trott (Partner & Head of Sustainability, Foster + Partners), Prof. Gaurav N. Sant (Director, Institute for Carbon Management - UCLA), and Jo Hills (Director, Real Estate Sustainability, Deloitte). The inaugural Innovation Zero Congress at Olympia London in 2023 convened 6,866 passionate, forward-looking experts who exchanged critical knowledge, debate and discussions around the implementation and scaling of the innovations needed to meet the Paris goals.

“Norman Foster”au Centre Pompidou, Parisdu 10 mai au 7 août 2023Interview de Frédéric Migayrou, directeur adjoint du Musée national d'art moderne, en charge de la création industrielle, et commissaire de l'exposition,par Anne-Frédérique Fer, à Paris, le 9 mai 2023, durée 16'08,© FranceFineArt.https://francefineart.com/2023/05/10/3438_norman-foster_centre-pompidou/Communiqué de presseCommissariat :Frédéric Migayrou, directeur adjoint du Musée national d'art moderne, en charge de la création industrielle.La rétrospective que le Centre Pompidou consacre à Norman Foster en Galerie 1, sur près de deux mille deux cents mètres carrés, retrace les différentes périodes du travail de l'architecte et met en lumière ses réalisations déterminantes, tels que le siège de la HSBC (Hong Kong, 1979-1986), le Carré d'Art (Nîmes, 1984-1993), l'Aéroport international de Hong Kong (1992-1998) ou l'Apple Park, (Cupertino, États-Unis, 2009-2017). La scénographie de l'exposition est conçue par Norman Foster et réalisée en collaboration avec Foster + Partners et la Norman Foster Foundation.Le parcours se déploie en sept thématiques : « Nature et urbanité », « Enveloppes et structures », « La ville verticale », « Histoire et tradition », « Sites et planifications », « Réseaux et mobilités » et « Perspectives futures ». Dessins, esquisses, maquettes originales et dioramas, ainsi que de nombreuses vidéos, permettent de découvrir 130 projets majeurs. Accueillant les publics à l'entrée du parcours d'exposition, un grand cabinet de dessins dévoile des carnets, esquisses et photographies prises par l'architecte, jamais montrées en France. Parce qu'elles constituent les sources d'inspiration de Norman Foster et résonnent avec l'architecture, sont également présentées dans l'exposition, des oeuvres de Fernand Léger, Constantin Brancusi, Umberto Boccioni et Ai Wei Wei ainsi que, des réalisations industrielles, un planeur et des automobiles.Se confronter à l'oeuvre de l'architecte Norman Foster, c'est immédiatement évoquer les projets qui semblent les plus marquants, ceux qui se confondent à l'image d'une ville, d'un territoire ou qui, plus simplement, ont changé la forme d'un site ou la configuration d'un lieu, d'une place. Grands aéroports, réseaux de transports, bâtiments de grande hauteur, sièges de grandes entreprises, bâtiments publics, grands ouvrages d'art, programmes d'aménagement urbains, musées… Norman Foster, avec plusieurs centaines de projets étudiés ou réalisés à une échelle mondiale, aura investi toute la complexité des organisations des grandes sociétés industrielles.Le Centre Pompidou consacre à l'architecte britannique une importante exposition rétrospective dans le bâtiment même qui fut un des premiers manifestes du courant architectural « High Tech »,dont Foster est considéré comme un leader. En 1963 à Londres, Foster fonde l'agence Team 4 avec Wendy Cheesman et Richard Rogers qui sera en 1977 avec Renzo Piano l'architecte du Centre Pompidou. En 1967, Foster fonde son agence Foster Associates, qui devient Foster and Partners en 1992.Norman Foster a imposé l'image d'une agence ayant su préserver son identité, celle d'une agence mondiale toujours ouverte à la recherche et à l'innovation, et qui intègre aux projets toutes les dimensions, techniques, économiques, sociales et environnementales. La compréhension élargie de la notion d'environnement à l'échelle de la nature et de l'ensemble de la biosphère est une préoccupation centrale de son oeuvre. [...] Hébergé par Acast.

Angela Westwater at 257 Bowery, 2020, photo by Alexei Hay Angela Westwater co-founded Sperone Westwater Fischer in 1975 with Italian art dealer Gian Enzo Sperone and German gallerist Konrad Fischer, opening a space at 142 Greene Street in SoHo, New York. (The gallery's name was changed to Sperone Westwater in 1982.) An additional space was later established at 121 Greene Street. The founders' original program showcased a European avant-garde alongside a core group of American artists to whom its founders were committed. Notable early exhibitions include a 1977 show of minimalist works by Carl Andre, Dan Flavin, Donald Judd, and Sol Lewitt; seven of Bruce Nauman's seminal early shows; six early Gerhard Richter shows; two Cy Twombly exhibitions in 1982 and 1989; eleven Richard Long exhibitions; and the installation of one of Mario Merz's celebrated glass and neon igloos in 1979 -- part of the gallery's ongoing dedication to Arte Povera artists, including Alighiero Boetti. Other early historical exhibitions at the Greene Street space include a 1989 group show, "Early Conceptual Works," which featured the work of On Kawara, Bruce Nauman, Alighiero Boetti, and Joseph Kosuth, among others; a 1999 Fontana exhibition titled "Gold: Gothic Masters and Lucio Fontana"; and selected presentations of work by Piero Manzoni. From May 2002 to May 2010, the gallery was located at 415 West 13 Street, in a 10,000-square foot space in the Meatpacking District. In September 2010, Sperone Westwater inaugurated a new Foster + Partners designed building at 257 Bowery. Today, over 45 years after its conception, the gallery continues to exhibit an international roster of prominent artists working in a wide variety of media. Artists represented by Sperone Westwater include Bertozzi & Casoni, Joana Choumali, Kim Dingle, Shaunté Gates, Jitish Kallat, Guillermo Kuitca, Wolfgang Laib, Helmut Lang, Amy Lincoln, Richard Long, Emil Lukas, David Lynch, Heinz Mack, Mario Merz, Katy Moran, Malcolm Morley, Bruce Nauman, Otto Piene, Alexis Rockman, Susan Rothenberg, Tom Sachs, Peter Sacks, Andrew Sendor, and William Wegman. Past exhibitions, press, and artworks can be found on the gallery website. Born in Columbus, Ohio, Westwater received her BA from Smith College and her MA from New York University. She arrived in New York City in 1971 and landed her first job as a “gallery girl” at the John Weber Gallery at 420 West Broadway. From 1972 to 1975, she served as Managing Editor of Artforum magazine. In 1975, the same year the gallery was founded, Westwater was appointed to the Board of Trustees of The Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation, where she has served as President since 1980. The books mentioned in the interview are The Free World, Art and Thought in the Cold War by Louis Menand and A Life of Picasso, The Minotaur Years by John Richardson.

Episode 25. AJ Climate Champions with Hattie Hartman. In this episode, we hear from structural engineer Hanif Kara who is working with leading architects on projects across the globe for ambitious clients with resources to deliver sustainable outcomes, including Google, Apple and British Land. Recent projects include Grafton's Stirling-Prize winning Town House in Kingston, Grafton's Marshall Building at the LSE, Foster + Partners' Bloomberg building and the new Google headquarters currently on site at King's Cross with Bjarke Ingels and Thomas Heatherwick. In contrast with most of our guests so far, Hanif is not a Climate Champion from way back, but we're delighted to have him on the pod because he is at the forefront of what is being delivered on the ground now and his design-led approach is pushing best practice. In this episode, he advocates reverse-engineering as a forensic method that utilises complex computational methods to retrofit and extending existing buildings.

La conferencia GTC 21 de Nvidia nos deja interesantes novedades GPU Technology Conference.Una especie de Autodesk University para el mundo del HW/SW de la visualización y la inteligencia artificial.Del 12 al 16 de abril.https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/gtc/keynote/ Más info sobre Omniverse En pocas palabras: Omniverse es como un Lumion, pero en la nube y colaborativo.En realidad sirve para muchas más cosas, pero más pensadas para la industria de los videojuegos o películas de animación.Está en beta y se espera lanzamiento oficial para después del verano.Una plataforma cloud (también hay opción de instalarlo en local), que permite:Conectar en tiempo real con muchos softwares distintos (Revit, Archicad, Rhino, 3D max...)Hay que instalar un plugin que se encarga se subir la geometría y mantenerla actualizada en tiempo real.Ver un "modelo federado" de todo lo que está conectado a la plataforma.Utilizar herramientas de la propia plataforma para:Renders en tiempo realAñadir comportamientos físicos y animaciones.Análisis de viento y solarUtilizar herramientas creadas por tercerosTodo está basado en el estándar abierto USD de Pixar.Estándar que también está adoptando Autodesk en Maya y Shotgun (el BIM360 de la producción)Hay varias ponencias de Onmiverse en el mundo AEC:Ejemplos de Foster+Partners usandolo con Rhino y Grasshopper.https://gtc21.event.nvidia.com/media/Collaboration%20Matters%3A%20End-to-End%20Workflow%20for%20AEC%20Projects%20%5BS32167%5D/1_maeinrmtEjemplo de CSN Groep usandolo con Revithttps://gtc21.event.nvidia.com/media/NVIDIA%20Omniverse%20in%20the%20AEC%20Sector%20%5BE32369%5D/1_irl4od64Hace falta registro para verlos.Esto no es el BIM level 3, simplemente porque es un tema geométrico y visual, no hay información ni base de datos. Autodesk está trabajando en nuevo motor gráficos para sus productos Autodesk usa el mismo motor gráfico en casi todos sus productos: Revit, 3DS Max, Autocad, Inventor, Fusion, Maya, Infraworks...No es un motor tipo V-ray, sino el motor básico que hace que las vistas de Revit funcionen.Se llama OGS (One Graphics System) y se desarrolló en 2007.DirectX 9 y Open GLNo aprovecha los avances de la última década en tarjetas gráficas y depende mucho del procesador.Es el responsable de que una vista se abra lento.Presentación nueva versión de OGS:https://gtc21.event.nvidia.com/media/Incorporating%20Real-Time%20Ray%20Tracing%20in%20Autodesk%E2%80%99s%20Next-Generation%20Viewport%20System%20%5BS31676%5D/1_48gt5iygDirectX12, Vulkan (renderizado en tiempo real)... Basado en estándares abiertos como USD o Material X.Comunicación directa con la tarjeta gráfica y uso de varios núcleos del procesador.Va ser más independiente de los software, con lo que se podrá actualizar sin que suponga grandes esfuerzos de desarrollo en Revit y compañía.Hicieron hincapié sobre todo en la parte de renderizado en tiempo real con ejemplos de Inventor, 3DS Max y Maya.Un render en tiempo real para trabajo, no para infografías.Es un desarrollo en estado muy temprano, no creo que lo veamos hasta dentro de 2 años. Archicad lanza su propio Dynamo: PARAM-O Ya existía desde julio de 2020 como beta para windowsAhora con la actualización 3 de la versión 24, ya es oficial y está también para macOS.https://graphisoft.com/downloads/archicad/updates/ac24/up3PARAM-O comparte con Dynamo y Grasshopper la interfaz basada en cajas que se conectan, pero su objetivo es diferente:En archicad, para crear un objeto paramétrico hay que hacerlo con GDL (un lenguaje de programación basado en BASIC).Esto es una importante barrera de entrada a la creación de objetos paramétricos.PARAM-O viene de Parametrizar Objetos. Es como un Dynamo pero específico para el editor de familias.Desde 2016, Archicad tiene una conexión directa con Grasshopper (el referente en programación visual)Si queremos automatizar procesos, o hacer diseños imposibles, tenemos la conexión con Grasshopper.Si queremos crear objetos paramétricos sin aprender GDL, tenemos PARAM-O. Patrocinador: 360 admin Tools Bueno, y lo que viene ahora no es otra noticia sino nuestro patrocinador: ¡360 Admin Tools! este conjunto de herramientas imprescindibles para administradores de CDEs con BIM360. Ya hemos hablado de algunas de estas herramientas, como el sincronizador de archivos y carpetas entre BIM360 y plataformas como SharePoint, Onedrive, Dropbox, Amazon S3 y Google Drive, también de la copia de entre proyectos del propio BIM360, o incluso en asignador masivo de usuarios a los proyectos. Pero es que de todo lo anterior tenemos estadísticas. Podemos saber cuántos archivos se han sincronizado en cada proyecto, cuantos GB, cuáles son los proyectos, empresas, roles y usuarios más activos dentro de BIM360. Podemos ver el número de usuarios que se conectan cada día. Y todas estas estadísticas, las podemos agrupar o filtrar por el criterio que queramos, por ejemplo: quiero ver el número de accesos de todos los usuarios con el rol arquitecto de la empresa X. Todo esto sirve para tener una fotografía de quién y cómo está usando la plataforma, tanto para detectar puntos de mejora como comentaba en el episodio 086 de Implantar un CDE, como para para saber el uso real de BIM360 cuando eres tú el que está pagando las licencias.

#IwannagotoSpain with Eloy and Nina XXIV International Architecture & Interior Design Exposition in Spain In the world of porcelain, stone and ceramic wall & floor design, there are two key international exhibitions that take place every year - Cersaie in Bologna, Italy during the close of September and Cevisama in Valencia, Spain. Earlier this year, The Chaise Lounge along with sponsor Porcelanosa visited the Spanish Group's exhibition which ran concurrently with Cevisama. The following shows recap some of the highlights of the tour with guests sharing their individual and collective experience from the trip, the inspiration for which was the Chaise Lounge's social media competition #Let'sGoToSpain. Eloy Selles Eloy Selles is the General Manager of the West Coast of the United States for Porcelanosa. A native of Madrid, he can now be found in the company's Southern California offices. Eloy Selles and Nick discuss the itinerary that sees guests take in three major cities and eight factories over a whirlwind five day period, where the emphasis plays to enjoying all that Spain has to offer in culture, hospitality, gastronomy and of course, great design. Some of Porcelanosa's newest product launches that were displayed on the trip included Tono by Foster + Partners, Vitae by Zaha Hadid, K-LIFE by KRION®, and the Seedwood collection by VENIS. It is clear that Eloy Selles could not be happier or more proud than when he's hosting clients and guests in his homeland. The experience of touring the most modern High-Tec manufacturing facilities and artistically designed showrooms leaves visitors with lasting memories and inspiration. Nick recounts some of the highlights which included Santiago Calatrava's modern City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia, the work of Antoni Gaudí' in Barcelona – from La SagradaFamília to Park Güell – and the countless restaurants and boutique hotels enjoyed along the way. Above: from left: Tomas Palomar: Porcelanosa International Division, Nick May: The Chaise Lounge, Nina Magon: Contour Interior Design, Pratibha Naware: Marriott International, Maria Jose Soriano: President of Porcelanosa Group, Kelli Ellis: Kelli Ellis Interior Design, Andrew Pennington: Porcelanosa USA, Lina Goldberg: HBG Design, Jessie Clayton: Jessie Clayton Designs Nina Magon Nina is the Principal of Contour Interior Design and was familiar with Porcelanosa before the trip but was not aware of the extent of the company's offering beyond tile. Nina chats with Nick about the value she gained from the experience, the sincerity of the customer service and absolute absence of any agenda to overtly promote product to the group at any point. Nina enjoyed everything on the trip during the group's hectic days together. One outstanding memory was the timely coincidence of joining the crowds in Valencia during the Las Fallas Festival. Enroute to Madrid the group had just finished touring the last factory in time to witness daytime fireworks with what seemed to be a million people celebrating Valencian culture in the center of the city in the early afternoon. Nina's undoubted opinion is that anybody who has the opportunity to join a Porcelanosa design trip to Spain is blessed, high praise indeed from a former guest on The Chaise Lounge. Currently, Nina and Contour Interior Design are working on a multitude of projects - including the owner suites at Minute Maid Park for the Houston Astros, a medical center and a 42,000 sq. ft. office building. Nina was also chosen as a blogger for the 2017 High Point Market to talk about her favorite products as a trend spotter for the new season. Her blog, Live Stylish Daily was awarded Best New Design Blog during the National Design Bloggers Conference in Atlanta and she'll join Nick on the Chaise Lounge High Point panel Hospitality Insiders Share All: What it Takes to be a Designer in the Hospitality Sector. Upcoming Events High Point Market – Oct 14 – 18 BDNY – Nov 12 – 13 KBIS – Jan 9 – 11
https://entrearchitect.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/brandon-hubbard-1.jpg ()Brandon Hubbard, The Architect’s Guide This week on EntreArchitect Podcast, The Architect’s Guide with Brandon Hubbard. Background Brandon is a licensed architect based in San Francisco, California and the founder of http://TheArchitectsGuide.com (TheArchitectsGuide.com), dedicated to helping architects with their job application and career goals. He practiced architecture with https://www.fosterandpartners.com/ (Foster + Partners) in London where he worked on several high profile design projects, including Heathrow Terminal 3, the Bloomberg Headquarters and the Samba Bank Tower. Currently he's a senior architect in http://www.hellermanus.com/ (Heller Manus Architects )in San Francisco working on large scale commercial and residential projects. You may have seen him online posting about architecture careers on http://TheArchitectsGuide.com (TheArchitectsGuide.com) as well as a content provider at Arch Daily. Origin Story Brandon was born and raised in New Zealand until he was ten, when he moved to Montana. There he completed his schooling, including a masters in architecture from MSU Bozeman. During his last few years and after graduation he worked for a small firm in Bozeman. The small, five-person firm landed a $100 million residential project. In a short amount of time, Brandon gained a lot of experience. Following graduation, he enjoyed working on that large-scale project. Looking around Bozeman, he didn't see a lot of similar work readily available. He decided to look abroad, applying to several firms in London. He joined Foster and Partners and was there for 7 years. During his time there, he worked on a client base in Madrid, Spain and rode out the recession in 2008. He moved to San Francisco in 2014 to work with Heller Manas. When he arrived, he had to complete a supplemental exam and then used his free time to start http://TheArchitectsGuide.com (TheArchitectsGuide.com). What pulled you to London? Brandon had wanted to relocate to China, but he realized he had to be vaccinated for a six-month waiting period for a few different things. During the wait time, he looked at other places abroad and landed on London. After a few offers and a week-long visit, he ended up moving there. What brought you back to the US? Brandon felt like he reached a point where he had to decide on a country. He had family in the US and friends in London, and felt like he was always flying back and forth. Then, the AREs weren’t available in London, so he was constantly flying to and from. Based on the scale of his projects, he was between San Francisco and New York. Brandon wanted a change and to have the option of being more in the outdoors. What lessons would you want to share from that experience? One article Brandon wrote details why he thinks you maybe shouldn’t work abroad in architecture, https://www.thearchitectsguide.com/blog/working-abroad-in-architecture?rq=abroad (Is Working Abroad Bad For Your Architecture Career?). There are pros and cons to everything. Depending on your goals, it could be great. If your goal is to meet a diverse group of people and work on interesting projects, moving abroad and outside of your own comfort zone may be a good idea. One downside may be the disconnect between the US based regulations and local codes versus those in Europe. What inspired you to help other architects with their job search process? Part of it came from the number of emails he received of people wanting his advice on how to get a job at an iconic firm. When he looked over their resumes and noticed common problems. He had a lot of conversations about what he did to get noticed and hired. Once he gave the same advice several times, he decided to take the knowledge he’d accumulated and turn it into http://TheArchitectsGuide.com (TheArchitectsGuide.com). How did you get a job with only a...
