Cities across the country are banning natural gas in new homes. At the end of 2020, my wife and I bought a two-story brick house on a tiny block in South Philadelphia, near where we’d been renting for close to a decade. We liked the wood floors and the big front window, and it was basically move-in ready with no major repairs. But for the first two months we lived here, we kept smelling gas.

Independence (formerly Maidan) Square in central Kyiv. I feared last night that in posting photographs only of Lviv, and for describing Ukraine’s capital of Kyiv as a “mixture of old and new” (in my book, a quasi-dismissal), I might be properly rebuked, and so I have been. A friend writes: Bombing Kyiv is comparable to bombing Venice or Paris.

Two ex-New Yorkers reimagine their lives together and team up with a local architect to create an unexpected residence. From the outside, Casa San Cristobal looks much like the other homes in Mérida’s historic center, with a tall plaster wall that faces the street—no front garden, no way to peek inside. The only signs that something special lies behind the pale-green facade are the sleek house numbers and two bright-blue doors.

A nod to the past, the contemporary country escape by Mapa Architects is surprisingly close to São Paulo’s hustle and bustle. "The sun rises here and sets over there," says Filipe Almendary, standing on a gentle slope near his newly built home. He moves his hand through the air, drawing a full arc over the long, linear wooden volume that sits high on the plot, overlooking a lush valley to one side and deep green woods to the other, just beyond the shimmering pool.

Stopping the rain that gets past the siding. In most cases, the investment in a rainscreen siding installation pays dividends in paint longevity and siding durability. To lower the risk of wall rot, it’s increasingly seen as sensible to provide a ventilated air gap between the siding material (also known as cladding) and the structural sheathing. As rainscreens become more common, mainstream builders are more often being compelled to ask, “What is a rainscreen?

Call in the plumbers These days when something goes wrong with a tap, or there’s a leaky pipe, or a ballcock, we call in the plumber. Plumbing is one of those trades that has been with us since ancient times and form the Romans to the early-20th century, water was carried in lead pipes. So plumbers were skilled in the working of lead – they could make lead pipes, mend them, install them.

At the beginning of this year , I predicted that we would see the price of carbon continue to rise, and in particular the price of EU carbon permits. Well the year is still young but so far the opposite has been happening. Back in January, the price of EU carbon permits were hovering around €80 per tonne. Since Russia bullied its way into Ukraine at the end of February, this market has corrected and now hovers around €66 per tonne.

Sustainability begins with a conversation, and acquiring customer buy-in is entirely dependent on how the conversation is framed. Clients may not see sustainability as a priority out of fear of operational costs and quality. While these are legitimate concerns, it is our responsibility as architects to listen and foster a collaborative culture that answers client issues while also reducing our carbon footprint.
