Moody Nolan’s Post

AIA Chicago asked me to write about the current state of high-rise building in Chicago and what the future holds for skyscrapers in a work-from-home era.

The article is in the current issue of Chicago Architect (which should be hitting your mailboxes this week) and is online here: https://lnkd.in/g4kzPigt

While a property’s success depends on several disciplines, architecture, design, and art & culture are often the triad responsible for intentional placemaking; they are the “ingredients” best suited for building community, reflecting culture, and shaping memorable experiences that keep people coming back. ➡️ And all three are equally essential. ⬅️ Read CEO Martha Weidmann's article for the Colorado Real Estate Journal to learn how these disciplines work together to maximize project budgets and overall success. https://lnkd.in/eENKRzbq

New York City | Architects can see the future “The new president of the American Institute of Architects, Kimberly Dowdell, says that when it comes to improving cities, “architects can see the future." 'We have to talk about the value of practicing architecture, but also we have to promote that value within the client community and help them understand what we’re doing, how it’s saving them money, how it’s creating value' Source: Bloomberg Image: 'A Walking city by Archigram' https://lnkd.in/edP4mfay #newyork #architecture #architecturedesign

I'm proud and humbled to share that our Do No Harm panel 'Society's Invisible Architects' is under consideration for SXSW. If you are intrigued or interested in design adopting a duty of care, or just want to explore the potential of an intentional design which moves fast but doesn't necessarily break (all the) things, then please consider voting for me and Giulia Bazoli via the link below. P.S colleagues tell me that to vote you need to register but that it doesn't take too long ⏰ 👉 https://lnkd.in/dSFHAcnG #donoharm #design
