In conversation with CNN Business, SGA Vice President Maren Reepmeyer AIA, LEED AP shares insight into the challenges and opportunities office-to-residential conversions present owners, designers, and communities. “Buildings with larger floors are much harder to convert," says Reepmeyer. "As an architect it is really fun to think of ways to solve for that – carve out the inside with nooks and crannies, punch out a light well, create a courtyard, add little balconies. But they cost money.” What does this mean for our cities? Read more ➡️ https://cnn.it/3u4Uzrw

Memebers of the Hale team are pictured here attending the close-out meeting with HollandGreen Architecture, Interiors & Landscapes following the successful delivery of a luxury new build house in Esher. This was not just to celebrate the success of the project - which is, of course, important! - but also to discuss ways we can all improve. It was a very valuable meeting and demonstrates our shared values of collaboration and commitment to continuous improvement. #collaboration #finebuilding #continuousimprovement

Just Awarded | Vue de monde Our team are thrilled to share that Capitol has been engaged by one of Melbourne’s most renowned fine dining institutions to assist with an exciting transformation. Vue de Monde has existed in many forms since 2000, when Shannon Bennett first opened the restaurant in a Carlton terrace. In 2005, it moved to Normanby Chambers in the CBD before relocating to the Rialto Towers on Collins Street in 2011. The team behind Vue De Monde have decided it's time for the venue’s next evolution. Key to this renovation will be the installation of a brand-new kitchen and thoughtful enhancements to the restaurant's dining area. Additionally, Vue de Monde's event spaces and the renowned Lui Bar will undergo a significant revamp. Elenberg Fraser, the multi-award-winning architecture firm that oversaw the 2011 move, has also returned for this project paving the way for an exciting future. Alongside this venture, Capitol are also completing a major hydraulic infrastructure upgrade on behalf of Rialto which is being integrated into the project. We're looking forward to providing further updates as the project progresses.

M. Khanzadeh's groundbreaking study "Enhancing user experience in interior architecture through biophilic design: A case study of urban residential spaces" (published in New Design Ideas, Vol.8, No.1, pp.137-168, 2024) investigates the transformative potential of biophilic design principles in urban living environments. This pioneering study reveals the enormous influence of incorporating natural components into interior spaces, resulting in harmonious surroundings that promote well-being and connection to nature. Khanzadeh's work demonstrates how biophilic design solutions increase user enjoyment, promote environmental sustainability, and improve overall quality of life through rigorous analysis and real-world case studies. As professionals and scholars negotiate the changing terrain of interior architecture, this study acts as a lights of ethical design principles, stimulating greater investigation and implementation of human-centered solutions to improve the built environment.

Here is a building with a taste of luxury, the flavor of family, and the look that defines this architecture as a home. Looking at this building from the outside tells a good story of every family in it. I love architecture, it speaks for us even without a word.❤️ #interiorarchitecture #3Dexteriorrendering #architecturaldesine

The Integral Role of Interior Architects in Construction and Building! #architecture #interiordesign #interiorarchitecture #designandbuild #construction

The Rise of Biophilic Design in Architecture: The concept of biophilic design originated in interior design and has only recently gained recognition in external and architectural design. Being a biophile means having a strong connection to the natural world and fostering that connection from within a building. Research indicates that offices with a biophilic design have a 15% higher level of employee well-being. Explore the rest of the biophilic benefits here: https://lnkd.in/dNBr9s7
