Ever wondered how to seamlessly integrate universal design into your architectural practice? This chapter attempts to clarify the concept of universal design by developing a list of guiding questions that can be used in architectural practices. This list consists of frequently asked questions (FAQ) in design processes and how an alternative to such questions could look like if we put on our universal design glasses. The aim is to help you towards an alternative way of structuring your design practice when possible. The chapter is written by Marie Christoffersen Gramkow, Marcus Tang Merit, Masa Kajita and Ulrika Stigsdotter, members of the Bevica Foundation's interdisciplinary research network. You can read their chapter in the anthology: https://lnkd.in/d5CNHzvS #UniversalDesign #Arcitecture

Some time ago I wrote a chapter on the importance of the questions we ask in architectural design processes. In the context of inclusivity and universal design, questions can help uncover hidden biases in architecture and help align expectations. The chapter is free to download if you follow the link below.

Independent brand consultant leading projects from strategy, to design & communication | Architecture & Design industry
Some decisions are almost instantaneous, coming directly from the gut. When I got the call from Queralt Garriga, Francesc Camps Palou, Cris Marcos & Andrea Palomino de la Fuente I didn't give it a second thought. There was no way I was going to miss the opportunity to be part of the curatorial team of the first architecture museum in Spain: La Casa de la Arquitectura. How to connect the three elements: the museum itself, the website and the catalogued architectural works all over Spain, into a coherent narrative? How to engage a non-specialized public with the importance of architecture? How to reach out to young architects who are generally so demoralized and undervalued these days? And lastly, is it possible to build a leading site capable of transmitting the transformative power of architecture? We answered all these questions and more in our ON SITE_ON LINE proposal which garnered second place in the public contest run by Ministerio de Vivienda y Agenda Urbana Keep reading about the project here: https://lnkd.in/dD5HAnrx #digital #publiccontest #architecture #communication

PhD | New Carlsberg Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow in Art History | Editorial Board Member, MDCCC 1800 | Associate Member, CODART
In exactly one month from now, my book Nelson Goodman and Modern Architecture: A Belated Encounter, will be published by Routledge. In it, I investigate overlooked aspects of both 20th-century architecture and philosophy, and I am particularly honored that it comes with endorsements from heavyweights in architecture, art history, and philosophy, who have kindly read my work. I look forward very much to talking about the book at events in Copenhagen and Aarhus, and beyond, in the months to come. #nelsongoodman #architecturaltheory #architecturalhistory #modernarchitecture #modernism

WIRED Magazine: HWKN, led by visionary architect Matthias Hollwich, is redefining urban spaces by integrating advanced AI and cultural sensitivity into their designs. This New York-based collective of architects and innovators uses AI to refresh creativity, tailor designs to local contexts, and explore unprecedented possibilities in architecture. HWKN’s projects, which include mobile structures inspired by nomadic cultures, are setting new standards in urban development, particularly in rapidly evolving regions like the Middle East. Hollwich envisions a future where AI democratizes design and creates more personalized, community-engaged, and culturally significant buildings. https://lnkd.in/euCkw-JT

I had the chance to spend some time listening and learning from the amazing #JuhaniPallasmaa , when we had him over at an event about architecture in movies at the Cinemateket in #Bergen, #Norway more than a decade ago. Captivating person and extremely pleasant to talk to and hear from. A learning experience in itself. Bellow is an article that poitns towards some of charecterictics of his architecture, and mainly at the human touch in it. In a more #AIgenerated and mainly visual designed environment, it is even more important to point towards the #feelings generated by an architectural space. I wonder how the built environment might look in the future, when we rationalize everything?! REFRAME arkitektur #HumanCenteredDesign
If you're into architecture that whispers stories, speaks in metaphors, and connects deeply with your senses, this one's for you. #ArchitectureSpeaks #JuhaniPallasmaa #Atmosphere #DesignPhilosophy #HumanCentricSpaces #MetaphoricalDesign

Topic: _Spaces of Interaction: The Intersection of Architecture and Social Sciences_ Talk by : Ar. Azna Parveen Architect, Urban Designer Abstract Architecture is a tangible manifestation of time, informed by the economic, cultural and political contexts within which it emerges. Shaped further by functionalities, environmental adaptations and aesthetic trends, it serves as a lens to gain insights into the values, capabilities and aspirations of societies globally. The interdisciplinary dialogue between architecture and social sciences is thus vital in understanding our built environments, their past, present and futures. This talk delves into understanding the symbiotic relationship between the disciplines of architecture and social sciences, exploring how architectural theory and practice intersect with social science methodologies. It emphasizes on the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to spatial explorations to provide a more cohesive and deeper understanding of communities and culture.

With sciences R&D developments increasingly migrating to amenitized urban areas, more and more opportunities for architectural innovation are being uncovered. In this blog, my colleagues Brent Van Gunten and Keith Nielsen share how two key Gensler projects in Berkeley and Seattle are prime examples of this innovation, and what they could signal for science buildings of the future. https://ow.ly/ktOS30sz9Ww
