SUMMARY:The North Atlantic Cities: A Book Event & Lecture with Author Charles B. Duff
DESCRIPTION:“The North Atlantic Cities” by Charles B. Duff\, which is available for the first time in the United States\, is a book on urban development and urban life masquerading as a book on architecture. It is the story of four hundred years of architecture and urban development in four countries: the Netherlands\, Great Britain\, Ireland and the United States\, particularly cities like New York\, Boston\, Washington D.C.\, Philadelphia\, Baltimore\, Savannah\, to name a few. \nThe author starts with a kind of building few others have considered – the row house\, which could very well be the key to understanding why many of the world’s great cities look and function as they do. From the 1600’s to today as the author theorizes\, this innocuous-seeming housing type is perhaps the antidote to suburban sprawl\, urban decay and the worst catastrophes of global climate change. \nEarn 1.0 AIA LU \nRegister online.

SUMMARY:April L&L: Polymer Trim and Moulding
DESCRIPTION:Exterior building products should be easy to work with and offer design flexibility\, durability\, and low maintenance. \nPolymer trim and moulding provides a finished look\, playing a key role in tying together building elements such as eaves\, windows\, doors\, corners\, and columns. \nThis course will cover the safety\, durability\, and performance benefits of cellular polymer trim and moulding\, as well as best practices for meeting code and safety standards. \nLearning Objectives\n1. Describe the emergence and role of exterior polymer trim and moulding in the residential and commercial marketplace.\n2. Review the safety\, durability\, and performance benefits of polymer trim and moulding\, including moisture resistance\, fire resistance\, and sustainability.\n3. Discuss building codes and safety standards as related to polymer trim and moulding.\n4. Examine best practices for designing with and installing polymer trim and moulding \nEarn 1.0 AIA LU \nRegister online.

SUMMARY:"Silo City: From Ruins to City" Screening and Panel Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Join AIA Richmond and AIA Northern Virginia for a jointly held virtual event on the award-winning short film “Silo City.” The film was awarded second place in the 2020 AIA Film Challenge. \nHear directly from architects Studio V Architecture and film-maker Jake Catalanotto about the importance of this transformative project to the city of Buffalo. “The Buffalo grain elevators at Silo City once fueled the growth of the city – but now they are abandoned. This site can be a hub for the cultural and economic resurgence of Buffalo\, a place of connection for the communities it once failed\, and an experiment in creating a sustainable American city.” \nThe story of the creation and development of this project is a compelling example of the power of design to bring about positive change in communities. Storytelling has always been integral to the work of architects in community-based projects and the medium of film-making is expanding this tool and the ability to connect with wider audiences through social media and other forms of digital outreach. Programs like the AIA Film Challenge continue to encourage architects\, film-makers\, and their clients to capture unique stories to share with others through the creative medium of film-making. \nEarn 1.0 AIA LU | HSW \nRegister online.

SUMMARY:March Lunch & Learn: Optimized Acoustics
DESCRIPTION:Complying with the more stringent acoustic performance criteria in the standards\, guidelines\, and building rating systems has become more challenging in today’s predominantly larger and more open commercial interiors. This is in part due to trends towards more reflective floor materials\, fewer walls\, and an abundance of glass. Higher amounts of sound absorption are required to limit reverberation\, increase speech intelligibility and prevent widespread noise disturbances. This presentation will educate designers on achieving the required amount of noise control using high-performance\, modular\, acoustic ceilings. In locations where transmission of noise from one room into another needs to be prevented\, the use of ceilings alone as sound blockers\, for example when the demising wall stops at the ceiling level\, no longer complies with the standards\, guidelines and rating systems. This presentation will educate designers on blocking sound using walls and lightweight plenum barriers so that their designs comply not only with user expectations\, but also the higher sound isolation criteria in the acoustics standards and guidelines. \nEarn 1.0 AIA LU | HSW \nRegister online. \nPresented in collaboration with Rockfon.

SUMMARY:Egyptian Places: An Illustrated Travelogue
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an overview of Richmond architect Henry David Ayon’s recently-released book Egyptian Places. The monograph focuses on 12 sacred sites of ancient Egypt whose individual characteristics are described by written architectural commentary and illustrated by over 200 hand rendered drawings and graphic studies. \nThe volume’s chapters are organized by individual sites and the drawings attempt to convey the unique architectural features and the mythic ethos of each place through visually rich\, detailed drawings that convey the sense of these massive edifices set in a stark desert terrain. \nCentral to the book’s evocation of the architectural distinction of the buildings is the hand rendering technique utilizing sepia pencil and markers to create a simulation of the colors and chroma of the landscape. Numerous drawings were scanned after the initial pencil sketch and manipulated in Photoshop to apply sepia coloration in various percentages of density\, thereby illuminating different aspects of a particular scene or artifact. \nEarn 1.0 AIA Learning Unit \nRegister below:
