  • The Paradox of Public Discourse: Designing Vancouver Library Square
    Linda Lewin Graif The Paradox of Public Discourse: Designing Vancouver Library Square rchitecture is a discipline that operates in a complex public A arena. While architecture may be defined as the art and sci­ ence of conceptualizing the built environment, the journey from the drawing board to the constructed artifact is a perilous one. The architect's initial concept, itself subject to constraints of many kinds, must be negotiated with clients, engineers, contractors, financial partners, special interest groups, and the general pub­ lic. Architecture, particularly public architecture, is inherently non-hermetic and, as such, is open to challenge and debate.

Scholar`s Choice: Cornelia Hahn Oberlander-From Exegesis to Green Roof by Nina Antonetti Assistant Professor, Landscape Studies, Smith College 2009 Canadian Center for Architecture Collection Support Grant Recipient, December 2009 March 2011 What do a biblical garden and a green roof have in common? The beginning of an answer is scrawled across the back of five bank deposit slips in the archives of Cornelia Hahn Oberlander at the CCA. These modest slips of paper, which contain intriguing exegesis and landscape iconography, are the raw material for a nineteen-page document Oberlander faxed to her collaborator Moshe Safdie when answering the broad programming requirements of Library Square, the Vancouver Public Library and its landscape. For the commercial space of the library, Oberlander considered the Hanging Gardens of Babylon and the hanging gardens at Isola Bella, Lago Maggiore; for the plaza, the civic spaces of ancient Egypt and Greece; and for the roof, the walled, geometric gardens of the Middle Ages and Early Renaissance. Linking book to landscape, she illustrated the discovery of the tree of myrrh during the expedition of Hatshepsut, referenced the role of plants in Genesis and Shakespeare, and quoted a poem by environmental orator Chief Seattle.

Alfred Taubman College of Architecture + Urban Planning 7 Foreword Raoul Wallenberg was born in Sweden in 1912 and came to the University of Michigan to study architecture. He graduated with honors in 1935, when he also received the American Institute of Architects Silver Medal. He returned to Europe at a time of great discord and, in 1939, saw the outbreak of a war which was to engulf the world in unprecedented terror and destruction. By 1944 many people, including thousands ofjews in Europe, were dead and in March of that year Hitler ordered Adolph Eichman to prepare for the annihilation ofthejewish population in Hungary. In two months 450,000 Jews were deported to Germany, and most of those died. In the summer of that same year Raoul Wallenberg, who was 32 years old, went to Budapest as the first Secretary of the Swedish Delegation in Hungary.

By 1979, over 30 members had been honored by election to Fellowship and it was time to formalize the structure and process. At CSLA/AAPC Congress ‘79 in Charlottetown, the College of Fellows was established. Specific ‘Rules for the Conduct of Operations’ were adopted, outlining the structure and operation of the College and the guidelines for advancement of members to Fellowship. The College’s Executive Committee is responsible for the conduct of affairs, consisting of the Chair, Vice Chair, Secretary-Treasurer, and the President of the Landscape Architecture Canada Foundation (LACF), as well as the CSLA/AAPC President as ex-officio member. The Annual Meeting of the College is held each year in conjunction with the CSLA/ AAPC Congress. An average of 20 Fellows have attended each AGM over the last several years. Particular attention has been given to the manner in which new Fellows are admitted to the College and the role of the College in the larger activities of the profession and the Society.
