I just concluded an inspiring tour of Dubai's 3D printing innovations! From eco-friendly housing projects to efforts in coral reef restoration, the promise of 3D printing here is remarkable. There's still a journey ahead, and I look forward to following the progress as Dubai Municipality continues to champion cutting-edge technologies. 🏘 Thank you Ahmad Alsalami, 3DXB GROUP and Habiba Al Mar’ashi for your hospitality! #3dprint #affordablehousing

"As we face a staggering demand for housing – needing to build as many homes in the next 30 years as we have in the last 7,000 years – we must prioritize sustainable construction. We can’t afford to cut corners. The costs of retrofitting are too high, and our growing, urbanizing population depends on us to build responsibly from the start." – Olivia Nielsen, Principal 🏘️ Olivia participated in the Future Proofing Our Cities plenary session at the Arabia CSR and Sustainability Forum on October 9. Let's challenge misconceptions and push for lasting, resilient solutions in the housing sector. We thank Arabia CSR Network for hosting this event and leading crucial conversations towards a sustainable future. #CSRForum #ArabiaCSRForum #Sustainability #UrbanResilience #AffordableHousing #MiyamotoInternational

Introducing Legado de Ravel, a stunning housing development in Downtown Sacramento!✨🏙️ This luxury residential and commercial space brings modern, Spanish-style flats to the heart of the city. It features two impressive structures: a five-story building with a reinforced concrete podium and a four-story building supported by a CMU podium. Both are designed with ground-level parking and wood-framed apartments above, resting on advanced Geopiers for added stability. A perfect blend of strength and style! . . . . . #structuralengineering #mixeduse #housingproject #urbandevelopment #legadoderavel #downtownsac #ca

Invigorating discussion at Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) today on climate-resilient infrastructure. Key takeaway: System-based approaches are crucial, but they must be co-created with local communities to ensure social equity and long-term sustainability. Our challenge is to break silos, integrate diverse knowledge, and design solutions that work across scales and sectors. Proud to contribute Miyamoto International perspective on how the private sector can drive this holistic approach. #SystemicResilience #SocialEquity #ClimateAction #CSIS

It was a pleasure discussing Future Proofing our Cities at the Arabia CSR and Sustainability Forum. As disasters shift from rural to urban areas, we need to be better prepared by both retrofitting our existing urban stock and making sure new construction is resilient. 🏘 Many thanks to Habiba Al Mar’ashi for organizing this timely and needed event!

This past month, our Director of Shelter and Settlements, David Hodgkin, witnessed firsthand the power of local expertise in Cap-Haïtien, Haiti. The visit centered on our team's implementation of USAID - Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance ADVANCE methodologies, developed by Miyamoto Indonesia, aimed at fortifying local businesses and communities against future disasters. It was inspiring to observe Merline Laguerre, a brilliant local engineer with a Master's degree, leading a crucial project in Fort Liberté. Merline's confident management of local contractors renovating WASH facilities in a school exemplifies our commitment to empowering local talent. This approach not only enhances community resilience but also ensures sustainable, locally-driven development. We're excited to share more when the project is completed! 💧 #watersanitation #facilities #Miyamoto #fieldvisit
