  • Design Forward, Reverse Engineer
    A+R+P+A Journal > Issue 01, Test Subjects> Projects > Design Forward, Reverse Engineer 0 DESIGN FORWARD, REVERSE 0 ENGINEER An interview with Cory Brugger How Morphosis manages to take risks. Published June 23, 2014 Morphosis office In Culver City. Photo: lwan Baan. Thorn Mayne's firm Morphosis has famously roused the ambitions of clients typically reluctant to take risks-even with government agencies such as the General Services Administration (GSA). ARPA .Journal spoke with Cory Brugger at Morphosis to see how the office uses practice as a site for experimentation. As Director of Design Technology, Cory tests ways to leverage technology for the practice, from parametrics to materials prototyping. Editor Janette Kim asked him how ideas about research have emerged within the methods, techniques, and processes of production at Morphosis. Janette Kim: What is the role of research at Morphosis? Cory Brugger: As a small practice (we still run like a ma-and-pa shop), we have been able to stay process-oriented, with small agile teams and Thorn involved throughout the entire project. In the evolution of the practice, design intent has always driven our projects. We start with a concept that evolves relative to the context (social, pragmatic, tectonic, etc.) of the project. R&D isn't something we're setting aside budgets for, but rather something that's always inherent and central to our design process. We find opportunities to explore technology, materials, construction, fabrication techniques, or whatever may be needed to realize the unique goals of each project. JK: This is exactly why I thought of Morphosis for this issue of ARPA .Journal.

With the goal of becoming a net zero building, The Bloomberg Center, designed by the global architecture and design firm, forms the heart of the campus, bridging academia and industry while pioneering new standards in environmental sustainability through state-of- the-art design. Spearheaded by Morphosis’ Pritzker Prize-winning founder Thom Mayne and principal Ung-Joo Scott Lee, The Bloomberg Center is the intellectual nerve center of the campus, reflecting the school’s joint goals of creativity and excellence by providing academic spaces that foster collective enterprise and collaboration. “The aim of Cornell Tech to create an urban center for interdisciplinary research and innovation is very much in line with our vision at Morphosis, where we are constantly developing new ways to achieve ever-more-sustainable buildings and to spark greater connections among the people who use our buildings. With the Bloomberg Center, we’ve pushed the boundaries of current energy efficiency practices and set a new standard for building development in New York City,” said Morphosis founder and design director Thom Mayne.

One of the goals of the center is to expose both children and adults to the benefits of sustainable green design and architecture, and to raise awareness about energy conservation. The building is a teaching tool, where green building strategies are expressed clearly and energy efficient systems are left exposed as educational opportunities. MATERIALS The design incorporates recycled and green materials throughout. Its striated rammed earth walls are comprised of cement, earth from local mountains, and crushed brick recycled from site demolition. Rammed earth construction results in durable walls that slow the transmission of heat and sound. The 18-inch thick walls absorb heat during the day and release heat as ambient temperatures cool. Each classroom’s nap area is lined with rammed earth, reducing echo and naturally regulating temperature where the children are most sensitive to noise and thermal fluctuations. Lowering the embodied energy of the materials was a priority. In addition to the rammed earth walls, the Center utilizes a palette of sustainable materials throughout, RAMMED EARTH WALL 2 including composite wood fencing, low VOC paints and adhesives, particle board and recycled paper countertops ABOUT MARMOL RADZINER with no added urea-formaldehyde, and CRI Green Label To limit its carbon footprint, the Center encourages alternative Since its inception in 1989, the Los Angeles-based firm Plus Certified Carpet Tiles.

  • ENTRY and CONSENT FORM Yves Saint Laurent-Inspired Fashion Design Competition
    ENTRY AND CONSENT FORM Yves Saint Laurent-Inspired Fashion Design Competition Fashion students and recent graduates are invited to create an original look inspired by the fashion icon Yves Saint Laurent and Seattle Art Museum’s special exhibition, Yves Saint Laurent: The Perfection of Style on view from October 11, 2016 through January 8, 2017. Take one of three iconic YSL looks described below as inspiration and create a sketch design; finalists will be selected to produce their looks. Finalists will have the opportunity to produce the entire look and the best three will be displayed in the Seattle Art Museum’s Brotman Forum for the duration of the exhibition. The top three winners will also receive an invitation to the Yves Saint Laurent Opening Celebration on October 8 and a SAM membership to inspire their creativity. Note: travel to Seattle to attend the Opening Celebration not included in prize package. The first prize winner will also receive a photo shoot of their winning look with a Seattle fashion photographer (including model and makeup), gift certificates to fabric stores, and consultation with SAM’s marketing team to help launch their career. 1. Mondrian dress, 1965 Possibly YSL’s most famous look ever, bringing fine art into fashion with a playfulness that was perfectly in tune with Pop art and music of the moment. YSL audaciously applied the modernist concept of flatness to the dress—no darts, no zippers. 2. Safari dress, 1968 This iconic look reached back to France’s colonial past and images of big game hunting. But it took hold with a new audience in the late 1960s as Saint Laurent adapted the laced-up tunic for both men and women, a revolutionary idea of androgyny that would help define the decade of the 1970s.

    DESIGN- THINKING & REGIONAL AWARENESS The AIA LA advocacy platform AIA LA Our Challenges, Our Strengths Southern s a region, we have the best weather, the Awonderful and varied natural terrain and California some of the most creative and diverse people on the planet. It’s important to celebrate LA’s is an idyllic beauty and grace as often, as loudly and as clearly as we can. However, we’re also the place. hotbed for almost every physical, natural and human-made challenge the world has to offer including climate change, severe drought, an aging infrastructure, unaffordable housing, a concrete and treeless environment and, much of the time, unforgiving traffic as well as being in a region prone to earthquakes. Let’s face it. We don’t really have the money, the time and seldom do we seem to have a system in place that has the social and political capital necessary to engage and solve these issues and yet we know we can take on these challenges. A prime example of this is measure R that is making major inroads into our transportation network, so we know we can do it. However continuing to do business as usual - attempting to solve these vast and substantial problems in isolation from each other – will only yield marginal results, at best. By learning to ask better questions, and focusing our efforts on the future we’d like to see how we, as a region, could work together to identify more effective and aspirational solutions. As Architects we are accustomed to integrating complex criteria from multiple disciplines to elicit elegant solutions that satisfy fiscal, social and functional issues.

    International Union of Architects International Competitions Commission GUIDELINES UIA COMPETITION GUIDE FOR DESIGN COMPETITIONS IN ARCHITECTURE AND RELATED FIELDS interpreting and implementing the UNESCO “Standard Regulations for International Competitions in Architecture and Town-Planning” Adopted by the 130th Council in Seoul, March 2017 Amendments adopted by the 131st Council in Kuala Lumpur, July 2017 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Task force: Esa Mohamed, Malaysia, UIA President 2014-2017 Thomas Vonier, USA, UIA Secretary General 2014-2017 Regina Gonthier, Switzerland, ICC Co-Director Jerzy Grochulski, Poland, ICC Co-Director ICC Member-Contributors: Roger Schluntz, USA Serban Tiganas, Romania, Council Member Patrick Colombier, France Paula Huotelin, Finland Kyriakos Pipinis, Greece Pierre Sauveur, Belgium, Council Member Tan Pei Ing, Malaysia Secretariat: Emily Bonin PREFACE In 2016, sixty years after the UIA and UNESCO ratified the standard regulations for international competitions, the UIA International Competition Commission (ICC) spent several months reviewing the rules and guide for conducting competitions. This was in response to growing demands for competitions for increasingly complex projects that not only include buildings but also city development, planning and urban regeneration. During the early stages of the ICC activities, the objectives were to emphasize fairness in the evaluation, quality and innovation. Now these objectives are set against the challenges of sustainability and climate change. There is a strong call for more creative solutions that will enhance the quality of life for the communities where the projects are located, as well as for their users. The designs and creations must take into account the impact on the local social framework while serving as an inspiration for future planning and architecture.

NATURE When Marmol Radziner designs for the Sonoran Desert, magic ensues. By Riki Altman-Yee // Photography by Bill Timmerman “Our goal was to make it feel like this house grew out of the natural landscape,” explains Ron Radziner, one of the architects behind a 5,000-square-foot oasis recently realized in the Sonoran Desert. Commissioned by a Midwestern couple, the project was the first Los Angeles-based design-build firm Marmol Radziner (marmol-radziner.com) completed in the Grand Canyon State. The firm is known for its award-winning modern designs, including the notable, sensitive renovation of the iconic Kaufmann Desert House in Palm Springs, Calif., designed by modernist Richard Neutra in 1946. The home’s original owner, Edgar J. Kaufmann, commissioned Frank Lloyd Wright to build Fallingwater 10 years prior. Though arid environs were nothing new to Marmol Radziner, this particular build also came with specific directives from the owners. “They wanted a home that would preserve the incredible views,” Radziner recalls, “and they wanted something simple and elegant that would blend seamlessly into the desert terrain.” continued… 88 INTERIORS FALL/WINTER 2017 | MODERNLUXURY.COM LIVING IN SCOTTSDALE home design From left: Marmol Radziner varied the home’s elevations to provide seamless sight lines.

    Since founding his firm in 1994, Lorcan O’Herlihy, FAIA has utilized LORCAN architecture as a catalyst of change to shape and enrich the complex, O’HERLIHY,FAIA urban landscape of our contemporary city. The work of his firm, Lorcan O’Herlihy Architects (LOHA), is guided by a conscious understanding that A DISTINGUISHED architecture operates within a layered context of political, developmental, environmental, and social structures. With studios in Los Angeles and PRACTICE Detroit, LOHA has built over 90 projects across three continents. O’Herlihy and LOHA have produced work that has been published in over 20 countries and received over 100 awards throughout the years including the AIA Los Angeles firm of the year. The diverse work of the firm ranges from art galleries, bus shelters, and large-scale neighborhood plans, to large mixed-use developments, housing developments, and university residential complexes. Each project by LOHA exhibits O’Herlihy’s belief that artistry and bold design are key to building a vibrant, social space to elevate the human condition via the built environment. MARIPOSA1038 SL11024 BIG BLUE BUS STOPS O’Herlihy spent his formative years working at I.M. Pei Partners in New York and Paris on the addition to the Grand Louvre Museum.
