Great support truly does make great construction. Behind every towering skyscraper, every bridge that spans rivers, and every building that becomes a part of a city's skyline, there's a foundation of solid support. It’s not just about the physical materials that hold up these structures; it’s about the people—the architects, engineers, and construction workers—who pour their expertise and dedication into every joint and girder. Their commitment to safety, precision, and innovation ensures that these constructions not only rise but endure through time. As we celebrate these monumental achievements, let's remember that great constructions are built on the foundation of unwavering support. 🏗️👷♂️👷♀️🏢 . . . #GreatConstruction #SolidSupport #EngineeringExcellence #BuildingDreams #ArchitectureLovers #ConstructionSafety #InnovationInConstruction #TeamworkInBuilding #StructuralIntegrity #SkylineCreators

Now coming up to 5 years lobbying cash-strapped public bodies to make better use of their greyfield land and brought forward precisely zero homes. During this 5 years, we've audited over 25,000 greyfield homes for public bodies (and one very large semi public institutional landowner). Little Ships is now focusing on local communities as the engine for delivering these homes and I'm pleased to greet Nicola Clayton onto the Little Ships NED board providing housing expertise for this next next phase. The public get it though, as does the private sector, and my architecture business Urban View now has over 300 greyfield homes in planning for developer clients with many more in the pipeline. Simplicity is key. Giving architects an MMC framework around which they can exercise their creative problem solving and not limit them to wallpapering bespoke high carbon concrete boxes. Our MMC solution, TopHuis, is just the tip of the iceberg. When British architects, engineers and manufacturers get stuck in, this sector will surpass the traditional volume housebuilder's bland, ubiquitous, (sub)urban tat.

As architects develop on land that is in increasingly built-up areas, the challenge of limited available space becomes more pressing. Joining us at #OAAConf to discuss solutions for residential, commercial, and industrial construction projects is Brampton Brick Limited. "We're in this environment now we're we're kind of being landlocked in some spots," said Mike Kriesel, Director, Architectural Masonry and Landscape Sales at Brampton Brick. "There's fewer spots to build, so whatever is left, you have to really maximize." Kriesel says his company is committed to being part of the solution, helping architects maximize the use of space with innovative products and services. Let's work together to create sustainable, efficient, and aesthetically pleasing designs. "We aren't just a manufacturer — we actually help solve problems," he said. Learn more ⤵️

2024 Ontario Building Code: What You Need to Know The Ontario Building Code (OBC) is slated for substantial updates in 2024, enhancing safety, accessibility, sustainability, and efficiency in building design. The changes encompass stricter energy standards, heightened accessibility, improved fire safety, revised structural guidelines, and new environmental protections.
