🔔 As we continue to celebrate our 40th anniversary, we're looking back at some of our past #projects. This week, we're taking a look at #ShireHall in Gloucester! Gloucestershire County Council set us a bold challenge — to transform their 1960s building into a state-of-the-art, sustainable office space, all while keeping it operational and honouring its historic roots. We took on this multi-phase project, delivering a cutting-edge, energy-efficient workspace, innovative Thinfilm Technology and Building Integrated Photo Voltaics (BIPVs). The development produces 1/3 of its annual energy requirements, while providing an inclusive, modern environment that Gloucester is proud to showcase. Discover how we turned this vision into reality! https://lnkd.in/eaVd3p7h #Sustainability #Architecture #Regeneration #Innovation Gloucestershire County Council | Kier Construction

Boston is setting a groundbreaking example for cities worldwide with its "Resilient Boston Harbor" plan. Led by Mayor Martin J. Walsh and visualized by SCAPE Landscape Architecture DPC, this visionary plan reimagines Boston's 47-mile shoreline as a bastion against rising seas and extreme weather, all while enhancing urban green spaces and accessibility. From strategic flood walls to the rejuvenation of public spaces, each measure is a step towards a future where urban landscapes are both resilient and vibrant. As Boston prepares for the challenges of rising sea levels and extreme weather, this plan is a testament to the power of foresight, collaboration, and innovation in urban planning. It's a call to action for cities everywhere to consider their relationship with nature and the legacy we leave for generations to come. Have you seen similar initiatives in your city? How are communities around you preparing for the impact of climate change?

Standing in the heart of Harare, the Eastgate Building stands as a testament to innovation and sustainability in architecture. Designed by renowned architect Mick Pearce, this marvel of engineering is not just a workplace but a living example of how thoughtful design can harmonize with nature. Inspired by termite mounds, the building utilizes passive cooling techniques that minimize energy consumption, reducing its environmental impact significantly. As I gaze upon its natural ventilation system and green terraces, I'm reminded that sustainable construction isn't just a trend—it's a responsibility we owe to our planet and future generations. The Eastgate Building challenges us to rethink urban development and embrace designs that prioritize both functionality and environmental stewardship. #GreenBuilding #SustainableArchitecture

In our conversation with Lindsay Puckett, AICP she highlighted contrasting viewpoints to the smart-grove concept, emphasizing a shift towards more pedestrian-oriented environments. Pointing out that urban sprawl historically revolved around car-centric design, characterized by wider corridors, single-use buildings, and extensive parking lots that deter pedestrian engagement. Lindsay expressed concerns about this approach disconnecting from the city's natural synergy, leading to increased costs for infrastructure, water, sewer, and public services such as fire protection.
