The challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic have brought me back to the last time I experienced something seismic like this: the 2008 financial crisis. It was frightening, it tested me, and ultimately it made me and my work better. Fear, uncertainty, and a kind of creative energy all seem to go together in times like these. Crises do not necessarily beget opportunities; they often leave destruction in their wake.

It’s the Kruger Shalati Boutique Hotel that had the fantastic idea of converting these stunning 1950s train cars into luxury guest rooms. There have been many train car conversions used in boutique hotels before, but the location of Kruger Shalati is what makes it truly unique. Imagine completely repurposed 1950s train cars, gorgeously styled and set upon a bridge high above the Sabie River.

The City of Houston recently approved tax incentives for businesses that install green stormwater infrastructure. Property owners who construct green roofs, rain gardens, permeable pavement, and rainwater harvesting elements can have their property tax reduced. A facility would be eligible for a tax abatement if the project valuation is at least $3 million, with at least $200,000 of that for green stormwater infrastructure.

Note: click on any image to enlarge it! Albrecht Durer was a painter and print maker in Germany, 1471-1528. He also wrote books, and traveled widely in western Europe. He was a superb draftsman.

All architectural drawings are representations - abstractions - of what we intend to build. The two lines that make up the wall segments drawn on a floor plan aren’t enough to describe what the wall should be constructed with. So we rely on three main devices to convey that information: drawings , schedules and specifications. Together these documents organize and catalog all the decisions necessary to build our project in a very precise way.

For years Baltimore City DOT mostly made headlines for unfixed potholes, badly timed traffic signals, the faltering of the once popular Circulator bus, followed by the faltering of the Baltimore Water Taxi service (a private service licensed by the City), and the collapse of Baltimore Bikeshare. As frosting on these failures DOT installed bikelanes and then ripped some out again.

Five years of a learning experience The mind of an architecture student is indeed a cauldron filled with fretting emotions, art, thought-provoking ideas, stories, and myriad experiences. Five years spent in an architecture school are nothing less than a roller-coaster that persuades you to find hidden values and varying purposes. But like everything, architecture has its pros and cons.
Speaker: Pedro Clarke – Principal Architect at A+ Architecture, In Loco Program Director
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.
