The Future of Energy and Design

2016-11-11 , Augenbroe, Godfried , Breen, Rita , Gentry, T. Russell , Jackson, Roderick , MIller, Justin , Schmidt, Jacqueline

Every year, the world’s population increases by 65 million people, and over the next 13 years, 600 cities will account for nearly 65 percent of global GDP growth. This afternoon symposium will explore ideas related to 21st urban housing in the context of changing urban demographics, sustainability targets and alternative energy requirements, via guest presentations, audience involvement and exemplary design projects. There are a number of new initiatives focused on understanding the forces in play as urbanized areas like Tokyo, Seattle, Atlanta, San Francisco, and New York City work to address issues associated with designing livable, energy efficient and affordable urban dwellings. As cities like Atlanta continue to experience a move away from satellite single family bedroom communities towards center city, mid and high-rise housing blocks, our challenge is to create sustained focus and dialogue on ecology, opportunity and affordability.

Measuring the Unseen: a Symposium About Building a Cultural Framework for Design and Technology

2016-04-04 , Kim, Julie Ju-Youn , Addington, Michelle , Kennedy, Sheila , Clark, Jennifer , Mynatt, Elizabeth D.

Sophisticated knowledge and skills in the right hands and minds can empower designers to make smarter design choices, but these instruments are not prescriptive. The balance lies between the space of the qualitative and the quantitative, between the immeasurable and the scientific. In this field of hightech and big data, where are the spaces for the ephemeral, the un-quantifiable, in an arena driven by metrics and computation? How can technology not prescribe but rather leverage and amplify the articulation of the thoughtfully considered design artifact? What are the possibilities when the skills of the craftsperson are merged with cutting-edge tools? This symposium will share the innovative research and creative production of the work of design leaders operating at the intersection of architecture, art, culture and technology.
