So how much should planners and architects know about historic buildings? Can you tell Georgian domestic architecture from Victorian? One of our #CPD sessions at AMS Planning talks about the (sometimes) subtle differences that are obvious when you know. What do you think? (HBOs aren’t allowed to take part…they might get it wrong!) #heritage #georgianarchitecture #victorian No cheating by looking up my YouTube channel video on this subject!

Are there any Architect's Professor's in my LinkedIn network who are academics focused on cultural heritage promotion and preservation? #Professor #Architects #school of Architecture #cultureheritage #preservation #Promotion

In the realms of art and design, a poignant observation unfolds: the emerging voices of young architects often go unheard. They channel their aspirations, beliefs, and innovations through the eloquence of their designs, yet the resonance they seek remains elusive. It appears that the younger architects and their creative endeavors stand as the most underrepresented branches within the distinguished corridors of art and design. In contemplation of this intriguing discourse, I offer my reflections. It beckons an exploration into the depths of creative expression, where the vibrant energy of youth finds itself amidst the shadows. A narrative that unfolds silently, waiting to be acknowledged. I extend an invitation to engage with my perspective on this matter. Your insights are valued; let us collectively unravel the nuances of this artistic conundrum and open a dialogue that transcends the boundaries of conventional expression. Together, let us shine a light on the obscured brilliance of the younger architects and their contributions to the ever-evolving tapestry of art and design. #curate #architect #artanddesign #voices

The topic of the talk was "Architecture Here and Now. Theoretical-Critical-Ethical Architectural Thinking," with yet another subtitle: "How should we think and make architecture in Costa Rica?"
