Imagine a world where budgets are just suggestions, city planners are as lenient as an indulgent grandparent, and the law of gravity gently steps aside to let creativity soar. In the "Atlas of Never Built Architecture," Sam Lubell and Greg Goldin have cracked open their fantastical treasure chest to showcase a collection of over 300 architectural hallucinations that are more about breaking rules than building foundations, ranging from sky-piercing towers that could scare Godzilla to sprawling, serene utopias that could make a zen master smile. It's a heavyweight tome that turns the "what ifs" of architecture into a buffet of brutalist dreams and visions too bold for mere mortar and city ordinances. https://lnkd.in/gRBgDEkf

This week’s Salon on Affordable Housing was really a terrific discussion about different strategies for design of affordable housing. Wonderful to share info and see the work of my esteemed colleagues. A lot of the discussion centered around how to drive down costs and innovate. And how to design in such a way that communities can accept affordable housing in their midst. My take was that affordable housing needs to happen at scale, and we need density at transit and high ground. A healthy city has a mix of incomes and uses around transit. Great walkable neighborhoods should be accessible to all. We have a defecit of 135K affordable housing units in Miami Dade county. In previous generations, designers and developers were able to design and integrate housing with dignity for all incomes. I have lived in garden apartments in Miami Beach and other places in Miami and they were designed beautifully with access to green areas and plenty of natural light. There is a pressing need for all of us designers to do better for more people and to advocate for healthier, sustainable and more equitable communities. In this, I believe the Eames motto is correct. We should strive “to make the best for the most for the least”. #designmatters #AffordableHousing #SustainableCities #EquitableDesign #ArchitectureForAll #HousingCrisis #InnovativeDesign #CommunityDesign #TransitOrientedDevelopment #SustainableLiving #DesignForChange #HousingForAll #GreenArchitecture #DesignEquity #ResilientCities #ArchitectsForChange #DesignWithPurpose #InclusiveDesign #MiamiDadeHousing #WalkableNeighborhoods #DesignForGood

A complex and challenging ongoing project, located on the banks of the Derbarl Yerrigan Swan River, surrounding an active racecourse and accessed from a primary regional road... Understanding the precinct holistically has been key to shifting the various planning levers at the right time to unlock the next step in project delivery without delay. Project challenges and opportunities are interrelated have required a full appreciation of the site and its constraints, stakeholder values and future (and concurrent) sub-projects to maintain the overall precinct planning vision.
The $4bn Belmont Racecourse redevelopment will be a city shaping precinct and our element team are pleased to support Golden Group across key aspects of the project including recently securing approval for the development of 74 townhouses within the emerging precinct. In conjunction with Space Collective Architects and DKO Architecture, these townhouses have been meticulously designed setting the standard for livability and creating an aesthetically captivating outcome. From public art to strategic planning, our team including Alison Healey, Renee Young, David Read, Callum Thatcher, Kate Parker and Kaitlin Redmond-Ball are looking forward to supporting this city shaping project as it comes to life.
