SUMMARY:Baltimore Architecture Madness
DESCRIPTION:Baltimore Architecture Foundation is celebrating AIA Baltimore’s 150th anniversary with a March Madness tournament of Baltimore buildings built between 1870 and 2021. Public voting will determine which buildings advance to each round of the tournament. \nCongratulations to Architecture Madness Champion:\nAmerican Visionary Art Museum  – Alex Castro\, Rebecca Swanston\, and Davis\, Bowen & Friedel (1995)\, Diane Cho\, Cho Benn Holback + Associates (2004)\nView Championship Voting Results \nVIEW THE ARCHITECTURE MADNESS BRACKET \n  \nVisit Our Championship Match-Up Page \n\nView Early Round Voting Results:\nSee Round of 64 voting results\nSee Round of 32 voting results\nSee Sweet 16 Match-Up Page!\nSee Sweet Sixteen Voting Results\nSee Quarterfinals Voting Results \n\nHow We Selected the Building Nominations \nBAF sought to include a diverse selection of buildings built over the course of AIA Baltimore’s history. 10 buildings were selected from each decade. AIA Baltimore and BAF committee leaders led the effort to select buildings using sources such as the AIA Baltimore Design Awards\, The Architecture of Baltimore: An Illustrated History\, A Guide to Baltimore Architecture\, and National Register listings. Public voting then determined which buildings were entered into the tournament. \nThe following rules were used: \n\nBuildings must be in the Baltimore region (AIA Baltimore zone)\n\nBaltimore City\, Baltimore County\, Howard County\, Harford County\, Carroll County\, Cecil County\n\n\nBuildings must be built within AIA Baltimore’s lifespan (1870-2021)\nBuildings must be extant\n\nFor the most part\, BAF avoided including single-family homes to protect the privacy of current homeowners. \nWhy Create an Architecture March Madness Tournament? \nThe tournament is intended to celebrate 150 years of architecture since the founding of AIA Baltimore in 1871. This is not a definitive ranking of the ‘best’ buildings in Baltimore. We want to see which buildings you love and learn why you love them.  BAF’s overall goal is to spread more awareness about Baltimore architecture.  As the tournament goes on we will be including articles about the buildings and from experts about the features of architecture that stand the test of time. \nPlease direct questions and comments to Nathan Dennies at ndennies@aiabalt.com.

SUMMARY:2021 AIA Baltimore & BAF Spring Lecture Series: Money & Hose
DESCRIPTION:Join AIA Baltimore & The Baltimore Architecture Foundation for a Lunchtime Lecture.\n\n\nPhotograph Courtesy of Phaan Howng \nArchitecture is a manifestation of culture. On the occasion of AIA Baltimore’s 150th anniversary\, the AIA Baltimore and Baltimore Architecture Foundation 2021 Lecture Series will explore how the built environment simultaneously reflects and influences culture\, in Baltimore and beyond. Each lecture will expose how cultural values shape design. The three lectures are focused around themes with specific local resonance in Baltimore\, a city in which the arts and culture are key to community identity\, history\, and future vitality: Architecture and Identity\, Art and Architecture\, Architecture and Social Justice. Visiting and local speakers will examine and highlight the built environment and its relationship with the arts\, community initiatives\, sustainability goals\, preservation\, equity\, the vernacular\, and more\, as we reflect on how these have been shaped by design practice throughout AIA Baltimore’s 150 year history. \nPhaan Howng is a Baltimore-based multidisciplinary artist focused on exploring the production of landscape through large-scale landscape painting\, sculptures\, installations\, and performance. Guided by philosophical\, anthropological\, and socio-political thinking\, Howng’s immersive environments are a response to the toxic extractive practices of global capitalism that hinder environmentally and socially just landscapes. Her work attempts to deconstruct man’s presumed power over nature by focusing on the geopolitics of displaced plant-life and questioning the labor and management that result from processing nature as product. Howng will provide an overview of her work and present on her latest exhibition\, A Bag Of Rocks For A Bag Of Rice\, urging us to rethink how gardening and landscaping practices can mobilize the development of more environmentally thoughtful and sustainable futures. \n\nRegister Here\n  \nAbout The Presenter \nPhaan Howng is a Baltimore-based multidisciplinary artist focused on exploring the production of landscape through large-scale landscape painting\, sculptures\, installations\, and performance.

SUMMARY:Applying circular economy principles to the built environment (Morgan State/Baltimore-Rotterdam Sister City Committee)
DESCRIPTION:The general concepts of the circular economy are widely agreed upon: material reuse and refurbishment leading to zero waste and lower environmental degradation\, but what does that mean for buildings and campuses\, architects and developers? This talk will walk through the practical applications of circular economy principles in the built environment – at every level from design to deconstruction and at every scale from building to region/nation. We will cover topics from urban mining to circular building design and circularity in neighborhood development. \nRelated article from Metabolic: Urban Mining and Circular Construction \nTIME & REGISTRATION\n1pm ET Maryland time\, which is 19.00 CET Netherlands time. The lecture is approximately 1 hr\, followed by 20 min panel discussion with Q&A. \nOpen to the public. Admission is free. Donations are optional; proceeds will be used for architecture education programs. \nREGISTER HERE \nAUDIENCE\nThe lecture is geared towards architects\, developers\, construction companies\, engineers\, building deconstruction companies\, and students. \nAbout the speakers\nNico Schouten works as a Green Building Consultant at Metabolic where he helps governments\, architects and developers make their projects more sustainable. Here he focuses on the building phase (weighing different types of embodied impacts and the impact of design interventions) as well as the use phase and how to create incentives for the users of the building to behave more sustainably. While studying Architecture at TU Delft\, Nico became interested in using architecture to make a more sustainable world. This led him to further research the concept of systems thinking and implementing circular strategies in his designs. After his graduation Nico worked at the AMS Institute as an in-house designer for the transformation of their office\, where he helped design a circular meeting space. He also worked at the Centre for Sustainability of the LDE alliance where he was a program manager for research projects on inclusive circular design in metropolitan areas. \nAndrew McCue is Sustainability Consultant at Metabolic. He has been involved in food and food systems for many years. Aiming to bring quality\, varied\, and sustainable food to larger populations\, he pursued work on sustainable agriculture with both soil-based and hydroponic farms. Towards the end of this period Andrew worked as a key account manager helping nascent hydroponic farms to build their businesses. Frustrated with the scale of environmental and social issues he saw in the food system\, Andrew took to the teachings of Donella Meadows and began to pursue systems thinking as a way to understand the roadblocks continually encountered in the industry. From this perspective\, it became clear that redesigning the relationship between urban regions and the food they consume was going to be key in unlocking the change needed to build a sustainable and just food system. The reputation of the Netherlands as a hub of sustainable cities and high tech agriculture\, drew Andrew to Amsterdam where he joined Metabolic as a sustainability consultant and business developer for projects in Agrifood and Circular Cities. Andrew is passionate about food and cities\, and even more so about making the connections needed to build a fundamentally sustainable\, just\, and enjoyable future. \nAbout Metabolic\nMetabolic is a consulting\, research\, and venture building firm focused on tackling global sustainability challenges and advancing a circular economy. We advise governments\, businesses\, and NGOs on how to adapt to a fast-changing global context\, while creating disruptive solutions that can dramatically shift how the economy functions. Combining systems thinking and data science\, we map and understand local and global systems to assess where to intervene for the biggest impact. \nHeadquartered in Amsterdam\, Metabolic has three core areas of operation. Our consulting arm has developed systems analyses and circular economy strategies for numerous global clients\, including WWF\, Danone\, Duracell\, and Akzo Nobel\, and city governments such as Amsterdam\, Rotterdam\, Charlotte. Our non-profit think tank works at the intersection of academic research and real-world experimentation\, advancing open-source knowledge on global sustainability issues\,\, and our venture building arm has launched spin-offs focused on the renewable energy transition\, green chemistry\, and sustainable urban development in underserved communities. \nAbout this lecture series\nThis lecture is one of a series of lectures in 2021 organized by Cristina Murphy\, Assistant Professor at Morgan State University School of Architecture + Planning (MSU SA+P)\, with assistance from Baltimore-Rotterdam Sister City Committee (BRSCC). The lecture series includes speakers from the U.S.A. about Baltimore’s cityscape and urban design\, and speakers from the Netherlands about innovative construction materials and circular design systems such as reuse\, remanufacturing\, and recycling in the built environment. Special thanks to Jeremiah Ekoja\, Graduate Assistant at MSU SA+P\, for his help with coordinating the lecture series. \nSee other lectures in this series
