Better late than never! Here are our favorite architectural articles from April.
1) Beyond Aesthetics: How Tech is Redefining Interior Design
Look into how digital technology transforms interior design, shifting focus from traditional aesthetics to multidimensional experiences. While this article highlights the benefits of incorporating digital technology into architecture, we challenge you to consider some of its shortcomings.
2) Flacco and bird safety
The untimely death of Flaco the owl highlighted the need for enhanced bird safety measures in New York. Large amounts of glazing in buildings account for a high number of bird deaths. Learn how laws are changing and how we can do even better in the future.
3) Do We Need Brighter Clouds?
It was the first outdoor test in the United States of technology designed to brighten clouds and bounce some of the sun’s rays back into space, temporarily cooling a planet that is now dangerously overheating. Scientists wanted to see whether the machine that took years to create could consistently spray the right-sized salt aerosols through the open air outside of a lab. If it works, the next stage would be to aim at the heavens and try to change the composition of clouds above the Earth’s oceans.
4) Design for Housing that Works
Creating attainable and affordable housing in today’s communities is difficult. Look into how we can integrate community-oriented design principles into housing projects from the outset aiming to ensure that housing developments foster stability and connection, enhancing the building experience and supporting resilient communities.
