Lecture by Bast

(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2019-10-23) Bast

BAST is an architecture firm based in Toulouse, who won the 2019 EU Mies "Young Talent, Architecture” award. The firm takes an anonymous approach and a proactive research posture adopted to experiment with the diverse potentialities of each project. BAST will discuss their current work in a lecture.
History Machines: The Deviant Practice of Inhabiting Information

(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2019-10-16) Kallipoliti, Lydia

The tentative term “history machine” is a medium of immersive scholarship lingering between reality and fiction, with which I examine, redesign, and reimagine archives. I see archives, not as static objects that contain historical documents, but as immersive spaces and living collections where existential ideas about world orders migrate though different architectural and spatial typologies. Contrary to a linear text, a reconfigured archive allows multiplicity, simultaneity and disruption. It allows the reader to travel between different times, places and objects of investigation, enabling multiple connections and complex affinities between themes, concepts and ideas that are not limited to a single place, era, author or type. A reconfigured archive can produce new interconnected categories out of archival boxes, a universe of multitudes that does not necessarily need to be transcribed in linear time. I see the use of history as a creative and generative medium for contemporary concerns in design education and practice; one that does not only promote public engagement with historical material, but also makes evident that in the history of ideas, discourses get recycled. Concepts emerge as allegedly new, though ideas undergo long journeys of migration from one epistemological field to another.
Living at the Intersection of Design and Analytics

(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2019-10-02) Greco, Joseph ; Case, James (Jim) W. ; Kingsley, Alissa ; Mowinski, Todd ; Williams, Matthew

The Kendeda Building for Innovative Sustainable Design was born out of an ambitious partnership between The Kendeda Fund and the Georgia Institute of Technology, focused on making exemplary change in how design and technology are used to create better environmental outcomes. It is the most environmentally advanced education and research building constructed in the Southeast to date- with a specific intent for aspects of the project to be transformative, inspiring- and replicable. Designing a successful Living Building Challenge project is by definition and necessity a challenging, collaborative and integrated endeavor. The highly integrated partnership of the Design Team mirrored the Client relationship. Lord Aeck Sargent and the Miller Hull Partnership along with an innovative and experienced consulting Team developed a Design Process that combined human creativity with technical analytics in virtual lockstep from beginning to end. The lecture will chronical the process and path used to design the facility where Georgia Tech will lead, educate and transform thought in the area of ecology and regenerative buildings. Further, the building itself is designed to inspire research and create aspects of replicability for other building owners, designers and constructors in the Southeast. The design process itself can serve as a roadmap for future Living Buildings. The Kendeda Building is designed for place, climate, culture and the diverse programmatic needs of a broad interdisciplinary set of users. It is designed to seamlessly integrate into and enhance the Eco Commons. The process of design for site and landscape, daylighting, waste water treatment strategies, active/passive approaches to solar, urban agriculture, integrated building mechanical systems, building structure, interior materials and cladding choices- with embodied carbon, health, equity and the human condition all as considerations- will be chronicled.
European Stories: European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture - Mies van der Rohe Award

(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2019-08-28) Blasi, Ivan

The EU Mies van der Rohe Award was launched in 1988 and for over 30 years has created a network that has scanned and interpreted the construction of the European territory. This space is composed of an emulsion of natural and cultural, vernacular and canonical, traditional and artificial elements. Contemporary architecture must assume this ambiguity, project it towards the future and offset the natural wear to which forms are subject by means of a symmetrical process of innovation. The nearly 4.000 works of the archive, created since the inception of the EU Mies Award, contribute a new inflection or added value to the European territory and the results of the 2019 cycle highlight this attitude. The lecture presents this network of people, institutions and companies and the works chosen by a prestigious jury formed by architects, curators, journalists and clients. The lecture is complemented with the exhibition in the Stubbins Gallery.
