I make/play/facilitate/research on Wurundjeri Lands. Connect with me if you like chats about transformative learning done in playful and relational ways! 🌱🌻🌈
It’s been such a natural fit for an org like Centre for Public Impact to collaborate with WonderLab on a Melbourne DesignWeek offering! We both love learning and a few things have really made a more mutual learning posisble. 💡Generosity of ideas and a clear commitment to working in relational, creative and affirming ways, (which seems to be part of the dna of how WonderLabbers show up in engagements), means we build/maintain relationships, and can have more trust in eachother, curiosity about differences in opinion, and give and receive feedback well. 📆I think having the scheduled time available with the explicit intent of testing ideas and getting feedback is one of the most impactful and easy to implement hacks to build a culture of learning. It’s also bloody hard to protect space and time for learning and build habits as a team. 3….? I’m super curious what others are doing to develop practice, and hold space for learning from and with eachother. What’s your favorite tip, or something you’ve seen done well?!
🌟 How do you develop practice in your community? 🌟 In a format designed by our director Lisa Grocott, one of the mainstays of our practice community is the 'playtest' - where we prototype workshops before we facilitate them with stakeholders or the public. We also 'playdate' - taking an idea that might be useful for many peoples' practice and playing it out together. This is a regular entry in our shared calendar, and anyone can grab a spot. Our Melbourne Design Week workshops for this week have all been through this process, helping to refine their flow and share practice on facilitation and co-design (woot-woot 🎉 to workshop leaders Anna Conrick, Myfanwy Doughty, Lisa Grocott, Leander Kreltszheim and Allison Edwards). This process knits us together as a community, building generative vulnerability in how we present, and generosity in how we respond to others' work (with thanks to Rachelle Chadwick's 2023 great paper on feminist critique). We all get to learn from these gatherings, and the community gets stitched together across multiple projects and ideas. How do you approach this community building work in your context?

I recently had the pleasure of listening to an inspiring TED Conferences Talk by architect and building tech innovator Doris Sung, titled "How Buildings Can Improve Life." Doris Sung presents a compelling vision for reimagining building facades as active contributors to urban life and public health. In this talk, Doris showcases innovative technologies that go beyond aesthetics to address critical issues such as pollution, energy efficiency, and urban heat islands. From buildings that filter particulates out of the air to facades that react to heat, her proposals offer a glimpse into a future where architecture not only serves as a shelter but also actively enhances the quality of life for inhabitants and pedestrians alike. I was particularly captivated by her ideas on how modern architecture can evolve to tackle some of our most pressing urban challenges. Her vision aligns perfectly with the need for sustainable and health-conscious urban development. If you're interested in architecture, urban planning, or simply want to explore how innovative thinking can lead to better living environments, I highly recommend checking out this TED Talk. Doris Sung's insights are truly eye-opening and offer a fresh perspective on the potential of architecture to improve our lives. 🎧 Listen to the TED Talk here: How Buildings Can Improve Life https://lnkd.in/drivf6bA #Architecture #UrbanPlanning #Innovation #Sustainability #PublicHealth #TEDTalks

We need to think about architecture that is supportive rather than stigmatising. This is the message from Swedish architect and lecturer in architecture and urban design, Dr. Jonas E. Andersson, when it comes to architecture for elderly people with dementia. In order to succeed, we need to work much more with notions of familiarity and the feeling of ''home''. This is according to architect and segment specialist Kristina Møller Hansen from FRIIS & MOLTKE Architects in Denmark. In our online senior architecture feature, read the interview with two experts – and understand why colours, shapes and materials are essential for the quality of life of people with dementia: https://lnkd.in/ePSvPrev #troldtekt #goodacoustics

✨ The significance of neuro-inclusive design. One of our modulyss Talks series has shed light on the transformative potential of neuro-inclusive design in architecture. #Neurodiversity #InclusiveDesign #modulyssTalks #ArchitecturalInnovation #PositiveChange #SupportAllChildren
In these times, it’s more crucial than ever to consider the significance of neuro-inclusive design. As many parents and children receive school results, we witness the impact of supportive environments. However, difficult summer holidays filled with self-doubt don’t reflect children’s abilities; rather, they highlight society’s failure to provide adequate support. One of our modulyss Talks series has shed light on the transformative potential of neuro-inclusive design in architecture. It’s time for brands together with the A&D community to step up, innovate, and create environments where every child’s potential is not only recognized but also nurtured. Let’s champion neuro-inclusive design and make a real difference. You can read our insights and watch the talks by expert leaders Jess Meredith, Mark Ellerby and Gillian Burgis Smith at https://lnkd.in/dvp88Ej3 #Neurodiversity #InclusiveDesign #modulyssTalks #ArchitecturalInnovation #PositiveChange #SupportAllChildren

The intersection of health sciences and the built environment is where the magic happens! Recently, I had the chance to explore this intersection at UPenn Stuart Weitzman School of Design's executive program, starting with biclimactic design. It's amazing how practical applications in health sciences can take you further in the built environment industry, and vice versa. There's an art to the science, and technicality to execute both is essential, and I'm excited to begin to integrate it into the field! #healthscience #builtenvironment #practicalapplications #biclimacticdesign #humancentereddesign #climatechangemitigation #integratedsolutions #xds #sustainability

I am thrilled to announce that I will be a keynote speaker at the **9th International Academic Conference on Places and Technologies**, taking place in Pécs from July 8th to 9th, 2024. Beauty is no longer enough to judge the built environment. What's the role of an architect in the face of today's most pressing issues, such as climate change and excessive urbanisation? Are architects a blessing or a curse? My keynote will focus on the responsibility of architects to go beyond mere aesthetics and make informed decisions to ensure that their work makes a positive contribution to sustainability, resilience and societal well-being. As urbanization continues to accelerate, the need for sustainable, liveable urban spaces becomes ever more urgent. The conference will focus on #humancentered design and foster interdisciplinary discussions on methodologies and ideas that enhance the liveability of our built environment. Key topics will include: 📗 The role of human behaviour in architectural design 📗 Integration and future of built heritage 📗 Planning and design strategies for diverse social needs 📗 Multidisciplinary cooperation and future technologies I am especially honoured by the kind invitation of Prof. Dr. Gabriella Medvegy of the Faculty of Engineering and Information Technology -University of Pécs. I look forward to discussing these issues with other keynote speakers and experts such as Olga Mihalikova, Prof. Arch. Adolfo F. L. Baratta PhD and Prof. Dr. Gábor Zoboki DLA habil of Zoboki Design & Architecture, sharing insights on how we can leverage technology to create more livable urban environments. Join us in Pécs for what promises to be an inspiring and impactful event!

The Humanise campaign's public opinion research brings to light two pivotal findings: people not only recognise the connection between architecture and their wellbeing, but they also place significant importance on how buildings look and the emotions they stir. Here, Shona from Blackpool offers a firsthand account of her felt reaction to buildings she encounters day to day. At the core of the Humanise movement is the belief that emotion defines our humanity. We think that we need to be asking: How do buildings make us feel? What impact do they have on our emotions? Are we creating an environment that allows people to feel safe, happy, and included? In the words of Juhani Pallasmaa, “Modernist design at large has housed the intellect and the eye, but it has left the body and the other senses, as well as our memories, imagination and dreams, homeless.” (The Eyes of the Skin: Architecture and the Senses). Humanise is on a mission to rewrite this narrative. One of the first ways to support the campaign is to sign your name at https://lnkd.in/eqbB_36J. Stand with us as we champion building designs that not only serve a purpose but infuse joy and engagement into our cities. #humanise

What influence do indoor climate, air quality, architecture and work organisation have on the recovery of patients in hospitals? 🏥 Scientists from #TUBraunschweig, Technische Universität Berlin and Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin are investigating this in an interdisciplinary research project. "The influence of building structures on the health of patients is often underestimated," says Prof. Wolfgang Sunder from the Institute of Construction Design, Industrial and Health Care Building (IKE) at TU Braunschweig. The location of a building alone is relevant, for example when it comes to the risk of heat stress.
