Claire Weisz, FAIA, RAIC, Hon FASLA, is the founding partner of WXY, the NYC-based architecture, urban design, and planning firm that is globally recognized for its community-centered approach. WXY acts at every scale: from the intimacy of an interior to the complexity of a city. From structures such as SeaGlass at The Battery, the Spring Street Salt Shed and Sanitation Garage, and the Rockaway Boardwalk to precedent-setting planning and urban design, WXY’s work reflects Claire’s belief in the importance of public space and dialogue in creating a regenerative, equitable and inclusive world.

Lecture description: The presentation will showcase how engagement is critical at every scale, whether designing a bench or urban spaces and policies. Using recent work from WXY’s portfolio focusing on climate, people, and place, Weisz will explain the value of design methods that create opportunities for continued engagement. Rather than using engagement to secure approval for preconceived designs, these case studies will highlight how engagement shapes the design process.

ABOUT THIS LECTURE:

The Animate Analytique

Borrowing from the French “Analytique” drawing, the composite drawing identifies the instrumentality of projection as the means through which meaningful connections can be made between –for instance, the plan and section. The Analytique had the capacity to communicate the entirety of an architectural idea through fragments, projected at varied scales, framed onto one hybrid drawing. Behind this method is the all-important presence of instrumentality, and how certain ideas of born out of a particular mode of representation –indeed how certain drawings already engender certain types of ideas. With the emergence of the digital practices, the drawing has sometimes ceased to maintain the same primacy it once had, if only because the database that a 3d model contains is even far richer in information, even if never exposed through a drawing. The Animate Analytique attempts to unlock this data base, while introducing the element of time, to create animate drawings that navigate changes of state: between plan and section, or between elevation and axonometric, or between parallel and conical projections, all revealing discrete ideas on their own terms in an organic and synthetic way. Within this lecture, I will demonstrate the connection between representation and construction, between drawings and buildings, and in effect, between our academic thinking and our practical engagement with the discipline.

Learning Objectives:

  • Contextualizing the Analytique, a historic mode of representation
  • Demonstrating the instrumentality of representation in design
  • Revealing the latent synthetic connection between varied modalities of representation
  • Showing the connection between drawing and building

Fall 2023 Lecture
Verify in Field: Projects by Howler + Yoon
Meejin Yoon of Howeler + Yoon
October 26, 2023 – 7:00pm
Armstrong Campus, 2500 Columbia Avenue, Lancaster, PA  17603

Verify in Field: Projects by Howeler + Yoon

The acronym VIF, or verify in field, is a notational convention on architectural drawings, alerting the builder that conditions in the field may differ from what appears on the drawings, and that further verification is necessary. The notation acknowledges the contingencies of construction and the limits of architectural representation. It also speaks volumes about disciplinary questions, the scope and authority of drawings, and the interactions necessary between concept and construction. In our practice, we use the terms “verification” and “field” to illuminate the design processes that we undertake in our work at different scales, from the detail to the urban scale. J. Meejin Yoon will present a range of projects using Verify in Field as a lens to understand the work and how it fits into a broader cultural context.

Learning Objectives:

  • Define VIF (Verify in field)
  • Understand how VIF impacts the design process
  • Learn what VIF items are important to communicate to a builder
  • Understand how contingencies of construction limit the architectural representation.

Elizabeth Whittaker, AIA | Fall 2021 Lecture

Elizabeth Whittaker, AIA with MERGE architects in Boston joins AIA Central Pennsylvania for the Fall 2021 Lecture on Thursday November 4th at the Armstrong Ceilings Campus located at 2500 Columbia Ave. Lancaster PA 17603

Elizabeth Whittaker, AIA is the Founder and Principal at MERGE architects. She has lectured extensively in the US and abroad, and the work of MERGE has been widely published both nationally and internationally, including Architectural Record’s 2014 Design Vanguard issue, naming MERGE one of the top ten emerging practices in the world. In 2017 Elizabeth was awarded the sole recipient of Architectural Record’s “Next Generation Leader” – an honor that is awarded annually to one female architect in the US. In addition, she is also the recipient of the 2015 AIA Young Architects Award, the Architectural League of New York’s “2015 Emerging Voices” award, and in 2020 nominated for the National AIA College of Fellows, the AIA’s highest honor for exceptional work and contributions to the profession and society.Elizabeth’s presentation is titled “Material Logic(s)”.

Reset, Re-frame, Reboot is undeniably the calling of the day. Rightly so. Both culturally and materially design has been charged to rapidly readjust to an urgent need to re-evaluate terms of space, place, and meaning of form. MERGE as a practice is taking stock of the work to date and their continued explorations on how materials, methods of construction/assembly, and typological twists show up as drivers to rethink contexts, identity, and the politics of placemaking. This talk will focus on how new work and past projects have engaged with this continuum of thought, and how might their future architectures reimagine the weight of our current state.

Annabelle Selldorf, FAIA | Fall 2020 Virtual Lecture

 

Annabelle Selldorf, FAIA was the speaker on November 19th for the 2020 AIA Central PA Fall Lecture. It was the chapter’s 2nd virtual lecture of the year. Annabelle’s presentation on her firm Selldorf Architects work titled “Recent Work” providing an overview of the 70 person 30 year old firm in New York City. Selldorf Architects creates public and private spaces that manifest a clear and modern sensibility to enduring impact. Annabelle is an architect of the highest order producing thoughtful work that is truly sophisticated, resolved, poetic, and transcendent. The work ranged from a modest artist cabin in Nova Scotia to high art galleries / museums in New York City and Venice to a school in Zambia, and to a sublime recycling center in Brooklyn. The Zwirner Gallery on 20th Street in Chelsea is the first LEED Gold art gallery and a stunning balance of materials, program, light. I have visited this project several times as it is one of the best buildings in New York City (Richard Serra is a fan as well) and encourage you to visit it for yourself. Annabelle and her firm’s work possesses a quiet power rooted in its clarity and focus on how people experience their inspired spaces.

Thank You to all the Sponsors – 8 sponsors made the lecture possible – and all the Attendees – we had more than 100 people register and attend the lecture.

Armstrong World Industries|2017 Fall Lecture Series

 

The 2017 AIA Central PA Fall lecture was held on November 16 at Armstrong World Industries’ Campus in Lancaster, PA. Paul Mankins, FAIA, a principal at the firm substance architecture in Des Moines, Iowa, was the speaker.

The night began with a tour of Armstrong’s Corporate Headquarters, a LEED Platinum Existing Building.  The tour was given by James Baker, the Director of Facilities for Armstrong World Industries. Those on the tour got to learn about the recertification efforts Armstrong went through, as well as see and learn about some of the sustainable features of the building. A “happy hour” hosted by Armstrong then followed.

Paul began the lecture by introducing substance architecture’s core values. They are summed up as r2c2s4p: Respect and Reduction; Clarity and Craft; Sequence, Stewardship, Symbol, and Space; and Place. Paul spoke about each of these principals and chose a project to describe how they influence substance architecture’s designs. It was apparent throughout the lecture that these core values are critically important to Paul and substance architecture’s work. Paul concluded the lecture by comparing and contrasting Harrisburg and the Central Pennsylvania region with that of Des Moines and Iowa.

DIGSAU Defines “Boondoggles” | 2016 Fall Lecture Series

By Rebecca Slenker, AIA

The 2016 AIA Central PA lecture series culminated at the Pennsylvania State Museum with DIGSAU, a successful decade old firm based in Philadelphia. Partners Mark Sanderson and Jeff Goldstein joined our chapter to speak about the evolutionary process of their work and the thread of continuity between all projects, large and small, including their recent AIA PA Silver Medal Award winning building, “Bigham Leatherberry Wise Place”.


Mark and Jeff began by discussing project types that they entitled “boondoggles”.  These tiny design competitions, installations, pro-bono work, and smaller projects were not done to build the firm financially, but were instead viewed as opportunities for growth and exploration.  They demonstrated how the time and effort spent was not wasted, but connected with and informed the firm’s larger projects. Mark and Jeff expressed the belief that the success of the larger projects was possible solely because of the very processes and techniques that were developed with the boondoggles.  The firm gleaned from these projects a willingness to experiment with unconventional materials, to reveal their nature in new and interesting ways, to approach the building process inclusively (especially with the tradesmen), and most of all to have fun along the way. In the question and answer segment Mark and Jeff addressed their approach to working drawings and the focus on efficiency, paying close attention to the areas that count while giving leeway to the contractor regarding more generic conditions.  The partners also noted their conscious choice to allow larger more profitable projects to help fund the boondoggles – emphasizing the value added.

It was apparent by their presentation, that thoughtful creativity and respect for the craft are of utmost importance to their partnership and that no matter the scale, budget, or profile of the project, the process of good design is never sacrificed.
