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: Signal Station North: On Light and Visibility in Baltimore City
DESCRIPTION:Join AIA Baltimore & The Baltimore Architecture Foundation for a Lunchtime Lecture.\n\n\nPhotograph Courtesy of Merrell Hambleton \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. \n \nPhotograph Courtesy of Neightborhood Design Center \nThe infrastructure of public lighting in Baltimore City is often overlooked\, and yet our street lamps\, porch lights\, illuminated windows and park lights animate the nighttime environment. For the past year and half\, Signal Station North\, a project of the Neighborhood Design Center\, has sought to understand the nightscape of the Station North Arts District through analysis\, observation\, activation and conversation. We’ve learned that light can be warm and welcoming\, but also aggressive; that it can invite us in or keep us out; and that at its best it can make us feel safe\, secure\, and at home. Through a history of light in Baltimore and insights from the Signal analysis\, research\, and engagement process\, this talk will explore how light impacts our neighborhoods—and how neighbors can impact light in their places.  Learn More About Signal Station Here \nRegister Here\n  \nAbout The Presenter \n \nMerrell Hambleton leads Signal Station North\, an NEA-funded project to plan for\, invest in\, and improve access to high-quality lighting in the public realm. As Program Manager for the Neighborhood Design Center\, Merrell supports implementation and design-build services\, including a forthcoming Designer-in-Residence program that will activate key green spaces in East Baltimore neighborhoods. Prior to her work with NDC\, Merrell produced pathbreaking public art projects with NY-based nonprofit Creative Time and artist Stephen Powers. She has a dual MA in Social Design and Critical Studies from MICA and BA in History from Columbia University. \n\n\nThank You To Our Generous Sponsors!\nMajor Sponsor  \nAyers Saint Gross \nHord Coplan Macht \nMaryland ASLA  \nWilldan \nSupporting Sponsor \nOak Contracting \nDesign Collective \nGensler \ninPLACE Design \nJMT Architecture \nMerritt Construction \nPrice Modern \nTW Perry \nVision Technologies \nWhiting-Turner  \nWohlsen \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCapitol Sponsor \nShaw \nCorinthian Sponsor \nGWWO Architects \nJames Posey Associates \nMurphy Dittenhafer Architects \nMohawk Group \nNorthpoint Builders \nPotomac Valley Brick & Supply \nSite Resources \nMueller Associates \nIonic Sponsor \nHope Furrer Associates \nCraig Gaulden Davis Architects \nAPA Maryland  \nAmerican Cedar & Millwork \nAmes & Gough \nBudova Engineering  \nDoubleEdge Design \nMorabito Consultants \nMoseley Architects \nPlano Coudon \nQuinn Evans \nSouthway Builders \nSuzane Frasier\, FAIA \nT3XTURE \nZiger|Snead \n\n\n\nThis project was made possible by a grant from Maryland Humanities\, with funding received from the Maryland Historical Trust in the Maryland Department of Planning.

SUMMARY:Materials passports for the built environment (Morgan State/Baltimore-Rotterdam Sister City Committee)
DESCRIPTION:Madaster considers the earth as a closed system where there should not be any waste. Raw materials are limited editions and scarce. Through registration and documentation of products and materials used in the built environment\, they can be reused in a circular economy and waste can be eliminated. Marijn Emanuel will discuss: \n\nCircular building strategies and case study\nMaterials passports\nInitiatives for (inter)national guidelines and standards\nThe Madaster platform\n\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 speaker\nMarijn Emanuel is one of the six founders of Madaster\, the register for materials of the built environment. Before founding and working for Madaster\, he has been an architect at the office of RAU architects in Amsterdam\, where is he still active. Currently\, he is working on the content of this platform on a daily basis. \nRecent article by Emanuel: Mind over Matter \nAbout Madaster\nThe Madaster platform was established in 2017 and went live immediately with one goal: to eliminate waste in the construction sector. The philosophy is clear. A management system that gives materials a future is desperately needed. There is a need for more insight and cooperation in order to clarify the environmental impact of materials. Risks must be reduced and business cases must be worked on to increase the value of used materials. And that starts with a first step: establishing who owns which materials. Waste is material without identity. It is time to exchange the linear economy for a circular one. Because only a circular system can eliminate waste. Moreover\, material with identity always retains its value. Madaster is neutral and independent\, but above all easy to use. The target group that can use it is quite broad: From property owners\, design teams\, app developers\, facility companies to the general public. It is available 24/7. \nVideo about Madaster platform \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
