The Fundación Colegio Americano de Quito (FCAQ) and the Colegio de Arquitectos de Pichincha (CAE-P) have joined forces to officially launch the International Ideas Competition for the design and architectural direction of the institution's new campus, which has been recognized for its academic excellence for over 80 years.
re:arc institute invites you to join the second iteration of their biannual symposium program dedicated to exploring the architectures of planetary well-being, which we understand as ongoing practices of custodianship and care towards our socio-ecological environments. Architectures of planetary well-being offer an approach to understanding the frameworks that connect these systems, in turn allowing us to imagine the relational change needed to move beyond extractive paradigms.
On November 16, the University of Santiago de Chile (USACH) will award an honorary doctorate to architect and 2019 National Architecture Prize recipient Miguel Lawner Steiman, in recognition of his distinguished career and commitment to social housing.
Today, most architects are used to the complex workflow of using multiple tools during the design process. These traditional legacy tools can be bulky and slow, hamper creativity, and often do not talk to each other nor let architects collaborate with their teams. This limits their ability to design, as they spend most of their time getting 3D models BIM-ready.
Snaptrude is aiming to solve these issues by establishing itself as a powerful, browser-based, collaborative 3D design tool. It combines smart, parametric modeling, live building information, easy real-time collaboration and strong interoperability with BIM tools like Revit. Below, a comprehensive list of how these features can make 3D modeling easier.

Collaboration challenges happen in any construction project; with so many stakeholders and disciplines needing to be heard, agreeing on something and making it happen can be mired in delays, misalignment, and frustration. For architects, one of the greatest challenges involves dealing with inconsistent or lengthy inter-team workflow processes, overburdened staff and worries over litigation risks. It results in duplications, needless delays, and unclear communications, all of which risk the most important asset any architecture firm has: its reputation.
Public art is part of our history, our culture, and our collective memory. It reflects and reveals our society, adding meaning to our cities. As artists respond to our times, they project their inner vision onto the outside world, creating a chronicle of our public experience.

The first public event – public conference “UREHERIT: architects for heritage in Ukraine” dedicated especially to the project happened on 13th of October 2023. Despite the war, experts from three countries - Lithuania, Estonia and Romania - visited Ukraine. As many as 120 speakers ( 50 experts offline and 70 experts who participated in the event remotely, in total the event united 300 participants and listeners ) share their knowledge and experience, and will experiment with the aim to build competence on the heritage protection, regeneration of culturally meaningful plans and projects and empowering of local communities as a tool for building the new, democratic, and sustainable Ukraine with a unique yet European cultural DNA.
Construction of a Labyrinth is the latest proposal from the artistic team of Elena Morón and Jesús Marina. It features latent virtual images that will gradually emerge, physical photographs that truly exist, a play on codes and texts, and real voids and perforations created by the artists.
We are excited to announce the call for papers for the upcoming Avani Annual Research Symposium 2023, "REFUGE City: Towards a New Urban Perspective in the Global South."

WORKSPACE EXPO "The international Workspace Projects & Design Solutions Exhibition” is the only event in Egypt & Middle East specialized for showcasing the latest mega administrative & workspace projects with recent unique design solutions in a business environment
The inspiration behind the name "游人如織" (Interweaving Travelers) is derived from a Chinese idiom, symbolizing the countless travelers as intricately woven pieces of brocade, layer upon layer. The exhibition's concept expands upon this metaphor with the aim of exploring the interconnectivity and complexity of global mobility. Especially in the post-pandemic era, as people once again regain the "freedom" to move, this exhibition, on the one hand, examines the co-constructive relationship between mobility and contemporary globalization, and, on the other hand, seeks to critically reexamine the fundamental essence of "mobility," exploring its potential to transcend national governance, geopolitical conflicts, and the influence of capitalist expansion.
Japanese art has an allure that transcends time, from the resplendent beauty of paintings on golden screens to the elegant lines of ikebana flower arrangements. In modern times, new technologies are revolutionizing our engagement with these art forms. High-precision replicas of precious paintings can be created, allowing the originals to be safely preserved, while still being accessible to the public. Meanwhile, contemporary artists are using technology to express traditional Japanese artistic concepts in novel ways. At this talk, Frank Feltens, Curator of Japanese Art at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Asian Art, and Japanese new media artist and Professor of Kyoto University Naoko Tosa, creator of Sounds of Ikebana, examine the applications of technology in the world of Japanese art today. Moderated by Monika Bincsik, Diane and Arthur Abbey Curator for Japanese Decorative Arts at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
