While in Hawaii, The American Institute of Architects (AIA) visiting leadership spent a morning at Iolani Palace with the incredible historian Zita Cup Choy and project architect Glenn Mason, FAIA, of MASON. We had a wonderful in-depth look at the intricacies of the Palace and how it set the example for many other buildings in Honolulu. Mahalo to Iolani Palace and Zita for spending time with us!

Historic England estimates there are around 500,000 listed buildings on the National Heritage List for England. These listed buildings aren’t just monuments to the past, as England’s heritage sector directly contributes £14bn to the UK economy. The monetary, cultural, and emotional value of these historic buildings mean it is vital that when reimagining them, we honour their heritage and take a thoughtful approach to development. Samantha Dixon, JDDK Associate and Accredited Conservation Architect, explores the importance of heritage building conservation in the latest Millmount magazine, explaining how as architects we can conserve the history of a building whilst making it future proof.

Translator, Copy-editor & Proofreader / Historian & Researcher / Content & Concept Creator
If, like me, you've sometimes felt yourself to be embarrassingly dim-witted (especially in obscure after-dinner talk with architects, and the like) because you've struggled with the connections and disconnections between the built reality of Ticino late-modernism from the 1960s to 1980s and the theoretical "tendenza" constructions that were simultaneously woven around it, help is here. In this wonderful book, Irina Davidovici steers a way through the confusions, admirably decoding, demystifying and re-analysing the complicated ins and outs of the "debate", including the latent and blatant paradoxes, and importantly adding another missing layer herself. Quite apart from the privilege of being able to read Davidovici's MS from beginning to end and work with her on the text, the book leaves me, for one, far more enlightened … as well as feeling intellectually less self-inferior and better equipped to fight with other future dinner guests! In short: I thoroughly recommend taking the time to read this, should the urge take you. https://lnkd.in/dmwMd2kw

So many similarities between the movement for a Common Materials Framework and the movement for consistency in meta data tags for building equipment. Partnerships like this (and trust!) will help unlock the power of data and the next wave of innovation will be incredible.
In an unprecedented collaboration of leading organizations dedicated to sustainable building practices and impact reduction in the built environment, The American Institute of Architects (AIA), the International Living Future Institute, the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI), the U.S. Green Building Council, and mindful MATERIALS have joined forces to align around the Common Materials Framework, which establishes for the first time a common language for holistic material sustainability in the building industry.
