Imagine being a kid going to your new, triangle-shaped school. The eye-catching form creates an exciting environment that celebrates the joy of learning. Inside, flexible spaces foster collaboration, playful areas encourage activity and cozy nooks invite students to hang out or enjoy quiet reading. With energy performance levels directly comparable to Passive House standards, East Calder Primary School is sustainable, accessible—and memorable.

A celebration of conservation excellence. The Union Station Revitalization project was recognized with the Heritage Planning & Architecture Award in Built Heritage at the 49th Heritage Toronto Awards. This significant undertaking transformed the 97-year-old National Historic Site in Toronto, ON into a modern multi-model hub and a vibrant destination complete with enhanced passenger capacity, and new restaurant, retail and event spaces. The grandeur of the Beaux Arts building was restored beyond anyone’s imagination and sits prominently as a vital gateway to the city. Watch the video to learn how the “dig down” two levels below grade resulted in the most technically innovative architecture and engineering solution to ever be implemented at this scale in Canada.

Exciting news: the Jason Hargrove Transit Center is a finalist for the ENR Midwest Project of the Year 2024. Selected from a competitive pool of 33 category winners in ENR Midwest's Best Projects competition, where it was recognized in the Airport/Transit category, this adaptive reuse project preserves a piece of Detroit’s history while being reborn as a transit hub. We look forward to celebrating all winning projects at an awards breakfast next month in Chicago, where the Project of the Year will be announced.

Is Tectonism the next evolution of Parametric Design? In our latest NORR ed lecture, Patrik Schumacher, Principal at Zaha Hadid Architects, introduces Tectonism as an emerging paradigm poised to unlock more sophisticated design solutions. Schumacher advocates for this new form of Parametricism—an approach that merges advanced computational techniques with algorithmic processes to create fluid, complex forms. Tectonism builds upon these foundations in part by integrating Artificial Intelligence, enabling designers to model natural phenomena and incorporate data into both virtual and physical environments. Evident in Schumacher’s work, this paradigm shift not only pushes the boundaries of digital tools and materials but also opens new possibilities for the future of architecture and structural engineering. Don’t miss the full presentation—discover how these ideas could reshape the industry. https://lnkd.in/gMia3vKq Patrik Schumacher, #NORREd #NORR #PatrikSchumacher #ZahaHadidArchitects #Tectonism #Parametricism #Architecture #StructualEngineering #ArtificialIntelligence #FutureOfDesign

If buildings had personalities, Arthur on Aberdeen at 210 N Aberdeen Street is bold and playful. Where modern meets retro, this vibrant development by LG Group exemplifies a strong approach to densification in Chicago’s urban core while embracing adaptive reuse. Watch the video highlighting the collaboration between client and architect as Luke Roberts, Creative Director at LG Group, and George Sorich, Vice President, Residential, North America at NORR, share the vision behind this transformative project.
