Good Architecture and Engineering Plugin for Rhino/Grasshopper: Karamba 3D. Can provide initial 3D structural analysis including stresses and load paths https://t.co/vh3y1jywCC via @YouTube#architecture#software#design#engineering
Looking for some guidance on fabrication for double curved wood or steel #construction. Fabricator in or near South Dakota #USA would be perfect! #architecture#building
Link to the whole conversation moderated by art historian Philip Ursprung. Discussion is loaded with gems if advice from Doshi; https://t.co/gN6seaDGcv
Advice from the late, great Balkrishna Doshi from a talk @VDM_News on ‘aspiration’ and working ‘in a place where you could thrive.’ #Architect, #humanist, 60 years in practice, Pritzker Prize laureate [2018], worked for and with alw Corbusier and Louis Kahn. #MotivationalQuotes
An outstanding architect and true humanist indeed. We will keep his memory alive through referencing his work and teaching his work to new generations.
Saddened to lose our profession's most wise, generous and prolific humanist, Balkirshna Doshi. Thank you for your pioneering craft- , climate- and community- centred architecture.
@SustainableTall very cool Ban detail. must have used the char layer principle. two layers quite possibly so that one is the sacrificial layer and the second can still protect the steel.
Truth! #Architects are as well. I’ve been telling clients the past couple years: “I can try and guess based on recent projects, industry data and books but I can pretty much guarantee I will be wrong! Best way is to engage a General Contractor into our process.” #construction
Engineers are bad at estimating Construction.
Don’t @ me.
I’m one too and completely understand that I have limitations in this department.
With prices changing literally every minute, an estimated price based on past bids is literally useless. 👷🏼♂️🏗💸
From the architect’s desk: Often we are using principles of traditional architecture to make contemporary forms and spaces. This project being designed now is inspired by the groin vault of the Romanesque #monday#design#digital#architecture#drawing
@evahagberg it’s a really good read @evahagberg and the writing is excellent. reminds me of Adrian Forty’s suggestion that "architecture = words + buildings."
I’m loving this perspective shifting book: “When Eero Met His Match” by @evahagberg. Explores the “iterative relationship between the visual and the narrative.” Focus on Aline Louchheim and her role in tailoring our perception of Eero Saarinen’s work. #architecture#design#book
As a lifelong, devoted @Lakers fan, I appreciate Jayson Tatum’s gesture to honor and remember Kobe but in the second half of a game 7, JT had 12 points on 4 for 7 with his last bucket coming with 4:38 left in 4th quarter. Nothing close to what Kobe would have expected of JT!
