North Dakota State University architecture student Sydney Seamands completed her master’s degree thesis recently on understanding how to save declining rural communities in the state of North Dakota. The thesis focused on five core areas: child care availability, community and cultural amenities, developing of thriving downtowns, access to single and multi-family homes and access to quality educational opportunities. Seamands looked at five communities across the state before zeroing in on Velva as having the most potential for implementing a simple rural revitalization strategy. Ganapathy Mahalingam, NDSU architecture professor and the thesis advisor for Seamands, said the aim was to develop a revitalization strategy not for just one community like Velva but one that can be utilized in several North Dakota communities seeking development templates. https://lnkd.in/gi5ReGez #architecture #revitalization #thesis #strategy

As we celebrate World Architecture Day 2024 with the theme of Empowering the next generation to participate in urban design, I cannot help but reflect on my motivation behind my PhD research on Complex Urban Integration. My research explores how architects can address the socio-spatial integration of migrants, tackling some of the most pressing challenges our cities face today. Architecture isn’t just about designing buildings—it’s about shaping cities that are sustainable, inclusive, and equitable. Through my research, I aim to contribute to the knowledge that helps marginalised communities find their place in urban environments, ensuring our future cities are designed for everyone. #WorldArchitectureDay #UrbanIntegration #PhDResearch #InclusiveCities #SustainableArchitecture #ArchitectsForChange

What is the schoolyard of your dreams like? 🍋Murcia's Directorate-General of Housing & Architecture led a series of 4️⃣ workshops at local schools which gave students capacity to transform their schoolyards to be green, resilient & healthier places! Through innovative methodologies and by applying citizen science, the aim was to reflect on the capacity of NbS and urban green to transform schoolyards into kinder, healthier, more sustainable and resilient places. The objective was that the results of the workshops would provide useful information to give final shape to the projects to be executed in the selected schools as well as promote the incorporation of natural elements into school spaces. "At the Ministry, we support the #GoGreenRoutes Project, and we wanted to accompany the educational centres participating in the workshops to find out what their needs are and offer them a better Quality of life." María Dolores Gil García, Director General of Housing and Architecture of Murcia 🇪🇸 Want to learn about the workshop outcomes? You can explore the report here📚https://bit.ly/3WJhzqE

Rebuilding Urban Complexity by Francesca Froy is a must-read for anyone passionate about the future of urban spaces. This book provides an innovative approach to reconfiguring our cities, ensuring they thrive in a postindustrial world. Since spaces that are emerged from post-industrial processes which I call them as waste spaces in my dissertation pave significant commons for reactiving public spaces and this book provides great insights about this reclaimed spaces. A great addition for urban planners, designers, and policymakers. Check it out! Greatly suggested.
