Daniel Libeskind, a renowned Polish-American architect famously known for designing the Jewish Museum in Berlin, emphasizes that even though a building is finished, it becomes part of a new dynamic: how people will occupy it, use it, and think about it. Libeskind, born in 1946 in Łódź, Poland, is also celebrated for his master plan to reconstruct the World Trade Center site in New York. His architectural approach often incorporates elements of history, memory, and symbolism, making his designs both thought-provoking and emotionally resonant.

The ACE Climate Change exhibition continues its tour arounds Europe! ↘ "20 architectural projects against #climatechange" I Lithuania With the support of the European Union's Creative Europe programme and the Lithuanian Architects' Union, the Architects' Council of Europe presented its exhibition in Kaunas, Lithuania, with 20 European architectural projects remarkable by their responsible and innovative ways of planning and building. #Architecture is a powerful source of solutions to challenges posed by climate change, in the medium-term and at low-cost.As demonstrated by the 20 projects featured in the ACE exhibition , it is possible to design urban spaces that are capable of dealing with extreme weather conditions, while at the same time adding new qualities to the urban space; and to design low-carbon buildings while increasing occupants’ comfort and well-being. ↘ Since it opened in spring, between 5,000 and 6,000 people have already visited the exhibition. If you are in Lithuania, don't miss the ACE Climate Change exhibition. https://lnkd.in/eBhTgfUV Lietuvos kraštovaizdžio architektų sąjunga Linas Tuleikis Ruta Leitanaite

In this year's edition of SHIFT, we’re delving into Urban Metabolism, a concept that views cities as living systems where resources circulate in cycles, much like in nature. By rethinking how materials and energy flow through urban spaces, we can design adaptable, resilient environments that minimize waste and maximize resource use. This approach focuses on reusing existing structures and designing new elements with future adaptability in mind.   Park Associati is curating the second edition of SHIFT, an International Seminar on Architecture and Sustainability, organized by Casa da Arquitectura in Porto and supported by the Portuguese Ministry of the Environment and Energy República Portuguesa - XXIV Governo.   Save the date! “The Future of Adaptive Architecture” SHIFT, 22-23 November Casa da Arquitectura, Porto   More info here: https://lnkd.in/excPmfBH video by Nicola Colella editing by Park Associati   #SHIFT #UrbanMetabolism #SustainableArchitecture #ArchitectureForChange #AdaptiveReuse #CircularDesign #ParkAssociati #Sustainability #UrbanResilience

Urban Infill - What are the lessons learned? Berlin’s Holzmarkt 25 is raising the bar for urban infill with Haus 2+, a Holcim Foundation Award-winning project by Office ParkScheerbarth. A few months ago, Awards Talks Berlin brought together an expert panel at Holzmarkt to discuss the project and the broader topic of urban infill. Topics like adaptive reuse, low-carbon materials, engineering challenges, and urban fabric integration sparked insightful discussions.

This prestigious award recognizes architectural achievements that advance the UN's 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the New Urban Agenda. Honoring projects that embody sustainable design principles, the UIA 2030 Award celebrates contributions to Sustainable Development Goal 11: "Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable."

A world Architecture Day perspective. Dear UIA - International Union of Architects Council, As an architecture student, I appreciate the UIA's efforts to celebrate young architects and provide opportunities such as the upcoming UIA Young Architects Competition. However, while the theme of empowering the next generation is inspiring, I feel compelled to voice my concern regarding the broken architectural systems that many young architects face today. Despite the rhetoric of inclusion and participation, the harsh reality for many young professionals is a financial struggle that forces them to divert from their passion for architecture. The systems in place often do not offer the economic stability, mentorship, or opportunities needed to thrive. The profession has increasingly become inaccessible due to exploitative practices, inadequate pay, and a lack of proper support networks. These systemic issues have left many young architects disillusioned and financially unstable, leading them to abandon the field or pursue alternative careers where they feel more valued. The call to action for young architects to participate in urban design and contribute to sustainable development is ambitious, but how can we fully engage when the foundation we stand on is fragile? The profession needs reform beyond competition announcements and symbolic celebrations. We need to address issues such as fair wages, healthy work environments, and meaningful mentorship, ensuring that young architects are not only empowered to create but are also able to thrive financially and personally in this field. While I applaud the UIA’s commitment to showcasing young architects' ideas, let us also ensure that these same architects have the support necessary to build resilient careers within the profession. We must fix the broken systems that are holding us back. Respectfully submitted. To all the young architects out there: Your creativity and passion are essential in shaping the future, but never forget to advocate for your worth. While we are called to build sustainable cities, let us also build a sustainable profession for ourselves one that values our work, time, and potential. Stand strong, push for reform, and together we can reshape not only the urban landscapes but also the architecture systems that support our careers. #architecture #youngarchitects #worldarchitectureday #sustainableprofessions #youngprofessionals
