I denne episoden snakker Lars og Alexander om samarbeid, og den svært sentrale posisjonen konstruktørene har i utvikling av en fremtidsrettet og høyteknologisk arkitektur. Det er en slags reise som følger Mies van der Rohe fra Europa til USA, og S.O.M. (Skidmore, Owings, Merrill), sine store prosjekter bl.a. i Chicago, og hvordan alt dette har påvirket oss i dag. Det er en lang liste med prosjekter og personer som nevnes, forsøkvis ramset opp her: Mies van der Rohe Barcelonapaviliongen, med Lilly Reich Villa Tugenhat, med Lilly Reich Lake Shore Drive SR Crown Hall (IIT) S.O.M. Willis Tower (tidl. Sears Tower), konstruert av Fazlur Khan. John Hancock building, konstruert av Fazlur Khan. Inland Steel, konstruert av Fazlur Khan. Burj Khalifa I tillegg nevnes Johnson Wax building av Frank Lloyd Wright, Ecole de Plen Air av Marcel Lodz, Ricardo Bofill, Oriol Bohigas, og Aqua Tower og St. Regis Chicago av Jeanna Gang og Studio Gang.

New theater scheduled to open in 2026 After several years of reviews, public meetings and modifications, the Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival on July 18 received its final set of approvals from Philipstown for the first phase of development at its new home at the former Garrison Golf Course. Planning Board approval sets the stage for a groundbreaking in the fall for a 13,850-square-foot outdoor theater on the former 11th hole, which provides an expansive view of the Hudson River. Chris Davis, who owned the course, donated 98 acres to the festival, which moved to the site in 2022 after staging its productions for more than 30 years on the grounds of Boscobel on Route 9D. Once completed, the structure will be the first purpose-built theater in the nation rated LEED Platinum. Among other criteria, the international standard - which stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design - judges buildings on how well they reduce global warming, protect water resources, enhance biodiversity and improve a community's quality of life. Platinum is the highest of four levels. Renderings by StudioGang The site plan was initially presented to the Philipstown Town Board in 2020 and revised several times to address concerns by Planning Board members and neighbors about issues such as noise and traffic. Plans for an inn and an indoor theater were removed from the first phase, more trees will be planted along Route 9 and a parking lot positioned on a wetland was relocated. Artistic Director Davis McCallum said this week that he appreciated the time that Town Board, Planning Board and Conservation Board members dedicated to the project. He also thanked residents who offered feedback during five public hearings. "We tried to listen to the community with openness and curiosity about how we could adapt this project to serve the community best," he said. "The process has yielded a better outcome." The theater will have solar panels, a green roof, natural ventilation and rainwater capture systems and will use low-carbon building materials. McCallum said that HVSF hasn't determined how much the project will cost, but that because of "quiet fundraising" and a $10 million state grant, it will begin construction on the theater in the fall and open the facility before the 2026 season. Since 2022, the festival has been staging its plays in a tent elsewhere on the site. The site was designed by Studio Gang, whose recent projects include the Richard Gilder Center at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. Its design there drew acclaim for its flowing and curvaceous granite interior that evokes desert canyons and beehives. "For us, they have delivered a design that is beautiful, sustainable and consonant with the landscape of the Hudson Highlands," McCallum said. Although the theater will have fewer seats than the tent, it won't include support poles that block views. In addition, McCallum said it will allow HVSF to extend its season from early September to mid-October, allowing for weekday matinees for students. The 2025 season is being envisioned as a "farewell to the tent," according to HVSF. McCallum said next year's schedule will be announced in October. He hinted that the company has known for years what show it will perform to open the theater in 2026. He wouldn't budge when pressed for a reveal but said: "It will be the fulfillment of something that we've wanted for many years, which is that moment when the actors can appear over the hillside and approach the theater. That's the thing that I'm most looking forward to on the first night."

As architecture and construction are two of the biggest sources of carbon emissions on our planet, what can architects do to change this? In this episode of Design Emergency, the US architect, Jeanne Gang, tells our cofounder Alice Rawsthorn how she and her colleagues at Studio Gang in Chicago are designing new ways of reusing and repurposing existing buildings, as an ecologically responsible alternative to building new ones, through a process she calls “architectural grafting”..Jeanne is a prolific and ingenious architect whose work at Studio Gang includes: the Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts and the Gilder Center for Science, Education and Innovation at the American Museum of Natural History in New York. Among Jeanne's projects currently being designed or under construction, are the new US Embassy in Brasilia and the Global Terminal at Chicago O'Hare Airport..She describes the defining theme of her practice as being to make “architecture that strengthens kinship among people, their communities and the natural world”. All Jeanne's work is steeped in her research at Studio Gang, including an experimental project to protect the one billion-plus birds that die in the US each year after crashing into high-rise buildings, and as a Professor in Practice at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design, where her teaching focuses on the theories of reuse and resilience that she explores in her latest book, The Art of Architectural Grafting..We hope you'll enjoy this episode. You can find images of Jeanne and her work on our Instagram @design.emergency. Please join us for future episodes of Design Emergency when we will hear from more inspiring and ambitious global design leaders at the forefront of positive change..Design Emergency is supported by a grant from the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts.

In deze aflevering gaat Michiel van Raaij, hoofdredacteur van Architectenweb, in gesprek met Nanne de Ru, architect en oprichter van Powerhouse Company, en ontwikkelaar en mede-oprichter van RED Company.In het gesprek heeft Nanne de Ru het over ‘de excels’ en daarmee bedoelt hij dat bouwprojecten en bouwprocessen alsmaar verder dichtgerekend worden. Dit gebeurt niet alleen bij commerciële projecten, maar bijvoorbeeld ook bij scholen en publieke gebouwen. En dit gaat regelmatig ten koste van de architectuur, maar ook van de positie van de architect. Met Powerhouse Company constateerde hij dat het steeds moeilijker werd om nog een volledige ontwerpopdracht te krijgen.Vijf jaar geleden besloot De Ru daarom een vlucht naar voren te maken en zelf ook projecten te gaan ontwikkelen. Samen met ontwikkelaar Niels Jansen richtte hij daarom RED Company op. Bij zijn zelf ontwikkelde projecten kon hij voortaan zelf de condities bepalen waarop Powerhouse Company, en alle andere partijen in het ontwerpproces, zouden werken. Maar het belangrijkste is dat hij op deze manier meer echt goede gebouwen kan realiseren, zo legt hij uit.Als ontwikkelaar kun je een project omlaag redeneren: vanuit een gefragmenteerd proces een zo goedkoop mogelijk gebouw realiseren en dat voor een gemiddelde prijs in de markt zetten. Maar, zo legt De Ru uit, je kunt als ontwikkelaar ook een project omhoog redeneren: vanuit een integraal ontwerpproces een werkelijk goed gebouw realiseren en dat voor een bovengemiddelde prijs in de markt zetten. Op dat laatste zet hij met RED Company in.De eerste resultaten van die benadering zijn te zien in Hoofddorp, waar hij met zijn teams hoofdkantoren voor Asics en Danone heeft ontwikkeld en ontworpen. Een aantal andere projecten is momenteel in aanbouw. Zoals een honderd meter hoge woontoren in Eindhoven die uit een in onbruik geraakt gebouw van architect Hugh Maaskant omhoog komt. Of een drijvend kantoor in de Rijnhaven van Rotterdam met een volledig houten draagconstructie. Ondertussen werkt RED Company ook samen met andere architectenbureaus, zoals Office Winhov, Studio Gang en Mecanoo. In de toekomst wil De Ru dat verder uitbouwen en in het gesprek roept hij architecten dan ook op om – als ze hulp kunnen gebruiken bij het ontwikkelen van projecten – contact met hem op te nemen.Deze podcast wordt mede mogelijk gemaakt door AGC.
