Every year, CannonDesigners across all offices come together to celebrate to our communities in a meaningful way. We love where we live and work — so Community Impact Day is just a small part we can do in giving back to a place we call home. From Ann Arbor to Seattle to Boston, we took some time out of the usual work today to give back to our communities. Collecting trash, making meals, playing with shelter pets, repainting schools--these are just a few ways we contributed to local non-profits and organizations. See where we made an impact this year: https://hubs.la/Q02GXpmV0 #communityservice #givingback #volunteer #livingcentereddesign

These include: ✴ Designing for neurodiversity ✴ Cultural inclusivity ✴ Trauma-informed design ✴ Mental health design ✴ Universal design Our Stephanie Vito, AIA, ACHA and Marisa Nemcik, AIA NCARB WELL AP authored a short resource guide that defines these types of designs and where they can be applicable to ensure a welcome environment for all. https://lnkd.in/d3Ki9eBH

The Medical College of Wisconsin's new Cancer Research Building turns contemporary research planning on its head by separating investigators and their wet labs with a collaboration zone. This design looks to stimulate the integration of cancer research across the disciplines of basic, clinical and population sciences through the introduction of this mixing chamber. This research center also aims to address cancer disparities and outcomes in a multidisciplinary and collaborative way. It completes the northeast corner on the Medical College campus in Milwaukee, creating a gateway building and making a statement about the importance finding cures for cancer. The east facade’s alternating open and closed conditions relate directly to the open and closed office plan - favoring ‘view equity’ for the open plan workstations. It also is reminiscent of the RNA scans so critical in creating novel therapeutic treatments for cancer. This building is expected to be completed in mid-2025.

As temperatures climb into the triple digits coast to coast this week (Phoenix, AZ set to reach 110, Durham, NC headed towards 109), designing for a future of intense and prolonged heat is a must. Keeping cities and neighborhood shaded can be a key part of climate design. Elliot Glassman, who leads our Building Performance group within the Sustainability team, writes that there are many scales of shade and much more to consider than just the familiar shade of trees. This includes how buildings can provide shade through its orientation and massing, as well as how support buildings on street level such as public transit or parks can provide UV protection and relief from the heat.

As summer days get hotter across the country, it is important that people of all backgrounds have equal access to ways to keep cool. There is clear data that public pool access is a matter of equity and socioeconomics. New aquatics facilities were are designing in partnership with and for the City of Baltimore will help curb that reality as they serve as safe havens for community members to cool off during our hottest days. We are proud to share that s/b, the official publication of the International Association for Sports and Leisure Facilities (IAKS) recently profiled the equitable aquatics ecosystem we have designed for the people of Baltimore.
