How can the architecture of memorials help us understand loss? Philosopher and architectural theorist Dr Lucy Benjamin from the University of Melbourne Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning is the recipient of the 2024 Ernst & Rosemarie Keller Award which will support new research into how we think about the past, the kind of memorials we construct to commemorate history & how we perceive monuments as time passes. https://lnkd.in/grbFnNzf

Does architecture have linkages to eco-anxiety? Can it even be violent? The relevance of the question is found when the immense environmental problems of construction are compared to recent findings that show how 66% of youth worldwide reported eco-anxiety. The beauty or functionality of buildings are of little benefit, if they come with heavy collateral damage. However, there are emerging examples of architecture that not only utilise efficient ecological design solutions, but also offer room for dealing with difficult eco-emotions or communicate alternative values to consumerism. I had the privilege to present the findings of (in our understanding) the first scientific article on the connections between architecture and eco-emotions at ARCH24, the 6th International Conference on Architecture, Research, Care and Health. Co-authored with Sanna Lehtinen of Aalto University and Panu Pihkala of the University of Helsinki. To be published in a journal later this year.

City issues: combining architecture, sustainability and gender Join the dialogs and debates in Bogotá on November 13 as we delve into themes such as how to envision future cities, public policies in favor of health and equity, and if we can achieve sustainability in architecture and our built environments. It’s my pleasure to participate in this, the 3rd Congress of Architecture, Gender and Sustainability. https://lnkd.in/dF29bhYW

👏 P U B L I C S T A T E M E N T: And here is the public statement from Moriyama Teshima Architects on the recent and abrupt closure of the Ontario Science Centre by the Ontario Government | Gouvernement de l’Ontario The landmark 1969 building by renowned Japanese Canadian architect Raymond Moriyama was closed following an engineering report by Rimkus with the Ontario government citing that the report found “serious structural issues with the Ontario Science Centre building.” While these issues would not be expected to materialize until the winter, according to Infrastructure Ontario, the intervening months were needed “for staff to safely vacate the building.” A deep dive into the engineering report revealed a different story. It suggests that the building’s key exhibition areas could continue to operate safely for years to come—even if the Ontario government chooses not to invest in any structural roof repairs this year. #OntarioScienceCentre #SaveTheScienceCentre #architecture #heritage #historiclandmark #canadianarchitecture Elizabeth Pagliacolo Stefan Novakovic Eric Mutrie AZURE Media Canadian Architect magazine

Brava to the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture's first recipients of the Fellowship to Advance Equity in Architecture: Nathalie Frankowski and Cruz Garcia / WAI Architecture Think Tank. Their work references "racism, settler-colonialism, disability studies, ecological justice, and other topics germane to the pedagogies of the built, destroyed, and imagined environments that comprise architecture and related fields."
