Podcast appearances and mentions of rory hyde

A lot of us have experience of open plan designs. Like any design, there are some wonderful examples and some troublesome ones. In recent months, open plan schools, otherwise known as innovative learning environments, have been pulled into the debate.       In this week's episode, we speak with Mary Featherston, a celebrated Australian designer whose recent work specialises in learning and play spaces; particularly for young children and Rory Hyde, an architectural researcher, curator and writer at the Melbourne School of Design.  

Architecture's Achillies heel is its perception as an elite creative discipline. But when you think about it, architecture has no other choice but to be accessible — the built environment is something we all use, regardless of our social status or income.But for architectural scholar and curator, Rory Hyde, what's often recognised as 'good' architecture often serves the former — the expensive private homes and institutional buildings that shine in the design glossies.That's why he's co-created the ArchitectureAU Award For Social Impact, a new award devised to recognise projects that promote the common good.

Our guest in this episode is architectural critic, writer and educator, Rory Hyde. Rory is an associate professor of architecture, curatorial design and practice at the University of Melbourne. After working in architectural practice, Rory's career has excelled in many areas connected or adjacent to traditional practice. In this interview, Rory shares his thoughts on architecture career pathways, the importance of doing things other than architecture that broaden our experiences and understanding of the world, the place of passion projects in an architect's career, and how some side projects become main projects. This interview is conducted by Nicole Mesquita-Mendes, the 2022 National SONA President based in Queensland.

In Episode 28 of A is for Architecture, I speak with Professor Harriet Harriss (RIBA, ARB, Assoc. AIA, Ph.D., PFHEA, FRSA), Dean of the School of Architecture at the Pratt Institute, New York. We talk about Harriet's writing, educational practice and academic advocacy, and discuss two of her recent books, Architects After Architecture: Alternative Pathways for Practice, which she co-edited with Rory Hyde and Roberta Marcaccio, published by Routledge in 2021, and Working at the Intersection: Architecture After the Anthropocene: 2022, Volume 4 in RIBA Publishing's Design Studio series, co-edited with Naomi House and published this year. I met Harriet as an undergraduate in Manchester. She was impressive then, and remains so, publishing, teaching, researching, speaking and writing on varied subjects. You can follow Harriet on Twitter, and on LinkedIn. You should watch her recorded lectures too, particularly Harriet's discussion with Patrick Schumacher in 2019, as part of Dezeen Day, and In Session: Design Curricula for Climate Crisis for the Royal College of Art in 2020 with Dr. Delfina Fantini van Ditmar. (There's a lot more, believe, so have a look around.) Enjoy, why don't you. www.aisforarchitecture.org + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + Music credits: Bruno Gillick.

The New Curator: Exhibiting Architecture and Design (Routledge, 2021) examines the challenges inherent in exhibiting design ideas. Traditionally, exhibitions of architecture and design have predominantly focused on displaying finished outcomes or communicating a work through representation. In this ground-breaking new book, Fleur Watson unveils the emergence of the ‘new curator'. Instead of exhibiting finished works or artefacts, the rise of ‘performative curation' provides a space where experimental methods for encountering design ideas are being tested. Here, the role of the curator is not that of ‘custodian' or ‘expert' but with the intent to create a shared space of encounter with audiences. To illustrate this phenomenon, the book explores a diverse, international range of exhibitions. Divided into six themes, a series of project profiles are contextualized through conversations with influential curators and cultural producers such as Paola Antonelli, Kayoko Ota, Mimi Zeiger, Catherine Ince, Aric Chen, Zoë Ryan, Beatrice Leanza, Prem Krishnamurthy, Marina Otero Verzier, Brook Andrew, Carroll Go-Sam, Rory Hyde, Eva Franch i Gilabert, Patti Anahory and Paula Nascimento. Featuring over 100 color illustrations, this highly designed, beautiful book offers an innovative contribution to the field. An essential read for students and professionals in architecture, design, art, visual culture, museum studies, curatorial studies and cultural theory. The book also features a foreword by Deyan Sudjic and an afterword by Leon van Schaik AO. Bryan Toepfer, AIA, NCARB, CAPM is the Principal Architect for TOEPFER Architecture, PLLC, an Architecture firm specializing in Residential Architecture and Virtual Reality. He has authored two books, “Contractors CANNOT Build Your House,” and “Six Months Now, ARCHITECT for Life.” He is an Assistant Professor at Alfred State College and has served as the Director of Government Affairs and as the Director of Education for the AIA Rochester Board of Directors. Always eager to help anyone understand the world of Architecture, he hosts the New Books Network – Architecture podcast, is an NCARB Licensing Advisor and helps coach candidates taking the Architectural Registration Exam. btoepfer@toepferarchitecture.

Future Practice (written by Rory Hyde) revealed alternative methods of design practice at the edge of architecture. Nine years since it's publication, it is even more important that we empower emerging designers to have a more expansive approach to their practice. Challenges within today's society demand we confront conventional practice with collaboration—and become more adaptable for an uncertain future. Hear about experiences outside traditional practice with a line-up of esteemed guests in a lively tag-team conversation as part of the annual MRelay series. Featuring over ten speakers, this experimental talkfest explores alternative modes of practice and ask the question—can we rethink design education, and the opportunities available to graduates? In a sports relay, a team covers a distance in turns, passing a baton from one runner to the next. In MRelay, thinkers, activists, provocateurs, architects and design doyennes share insights and ideas in this marathon conversation. It's fast-paced, exhilarating and, best of all, deeply unpredictable. Hosted by Monash Architecture Around group. This event was part of Melbourne Design Week 2022.

Climate change, the pandemic, and decades of unchecked development have left our city crying out for more meaningful design. As we grapple with the changes of the ‘now,' and how to re-engage with the urban, questions on what needs to be done to repair our relationship with the city are increasingly relevant. In this conversation, the multidisciplinary panel featuring Andy Fergus, Maddi Miller, Amelia Leavesley and Rory Hyde, moderated by Lily Di Sciascio and Woodrow Smith, seeks to answer the question: How can we repair our city? This event has been developed as part of the M_Curators, an MPavilion program engaging young makers, doers and programmers. This initiative is made possible by our presenting partner Bloomberg Philanthropies. Image by Fraser at Assemble Communities

Join Kate Rich—founder of grocery business and public experiment Feral Trade—in conversation with designer, writer and architect Rory Hyde. Linking their discussion to MPavilion's November theme ‘Island Life'—a theme that considers the literal places and figurative spaces that exist between others—Kate and Rory will talk about the groundbreaking ways that Feral Trade is challenging capitalist economies with the joyfulling subversive trading of goods, ‘passed by hand'.

The structure of how we build, design and inhabit cities has been changing during the Covid 19 pandemic. In this episode, we have an intriguing conversation with Rory Hyde who is Designer and Curator of Contemporary Architecture and Urbanism at the Victoria and Albert Museum. Our conversation covers how Covid 19 may affect the way we design and inhabit cities including workspaces, museums and possible new trends such as lower density living.

Rory Hyde is an architect, curator and writer based in London. His work is focuses on new forms of design practice, and redefining the role of the designer today. Currently, he's Curator of Contemporary Architecture and Urbanism at the Victoria and Albert Museum and is the author of the book, Future Practice, a collection of interviews about the edge of architecture. In this wide-ranging conversation, Rory and I talk about his early career as an architect and interning at Volume magazine, the differences between practice and curation, and the types of design criticism he's drawn to and wants to see more of. Links from this episode can be found at scratchingthesurface.fm.

The Small Homes Service, initiated by Robin Boyd in 1947, sought to popularise the modern home and make it available to a broad public. It had an immense positive impact on the then burgeoning suburbs, with an estimated 15% of new homes in Victoria being built as part of the scheme. But toward the end of his life Robin Boyd could already see the deleterious effect suburban sprawl was having on the physical and social fabric of the city, advocating for new medium-density typologies. Boyd’s warnings went unheeded, and the suburbs continue to extend further into the horizon today. Meanwhile, the practice of architecture has all but abandoned the fringe, instead hitching its wagon to the boutique luxury market of the inner ring. Could these issues be addressed with a new Small Homes Service today? What would such a programme look like? If he were here now, what would Robin Boyd do? Join historian Phillip Goad and curator Rory Hyde as they evaluate the legacy of the Small Homes Service, and invite you to join a discussion as to what form a revived version of it could take today. With thanks to the Melbourne School of Design for their support. We acknowledge the Robin Boyd Foundation for the fantastic work they do.
