Innovative solutions for the new normal – sustainable, resilient and inclusive while physical distancing.

The design of a new Memorial to Enslaved Laborers (MEL) on the grounds of the University of Virginia marks a critical moment to address the complex history of the University – and of the country. It directly responds to a deep need to address an untold and uncomfortable history – one that is still very much a difficult, though necessary, national conversation on race. The goal of the Memorial is to create a physical place of remembrance and a symbolic acknowledgement of a difficult past and offers a place of learning and a place of healing.

Join us on August 4th, 2020 for the launch of Bracket [Takes Action] (AR+D Publishing) featuring Belinda Tato (ecosistema urbano / Harvard GSD), & Yoshiharu Tsukamoto (Atelier Bow-Wow) in conversation with co-editors Neeraj Bhatia (CCA / The Open Workshop) and Mason White (University of Toronto / Lateral Office).

The aim of the open sketch design competition is to obtain high-quality, architecturally elaborate and economically justified solutions for the spatial development vision and the intent of construction of new buildings as part of Stage 1 in Riga, Latvia, at Daugavgrīvas iela 31 in the territory owned by SIA “DG31” by means of a creative rivalry, rational use of funds and free competition between participants.

The objective of the first Greater Bay Area Urban Design Awards (GBA Urban Design Awards) is to elevate the overall urban design standard in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) through recognition of excellence in urban design related projects in the GBA and foster collaboration and exchange among urban designers, planners, architects, landscape architects, engineers, surveyors and other urban design professionals, companies and organisations in the GBA.

This competition exists in an Alternate Reality. You make the rules in this realm. Does gravity exist? Do humans live on Earth? How far has technology advanced? You decide!

The typology of the architect's population is changing with a decrease in the average age of practitioners. Each year, hundreds of young laureates, mainly from national universities are joining the job market and the interest in architectural patrimony is perceptibly on the rise.
