This article by Jennie Morton for BUILDINGS cites five common misconceptions about bird-friendly building design, including the myth that bird-safe glass is unattractive. The feature image of Marquette University's David A. Straz, Jr., Hall, designed by HGA Architects with AviProtek® T transparent bird-friendly glass, is a perfect example of how unobtrusive bird-safe glass can be. https://lnkd.in/gYpvuWZV You can see more details about the project at https://lnkd.in/edsktaCz // Cet article de Jenni Morton pour Buildings Magazine cite cinq idées préconçues sur la conception de bâtiments sécuritaires pour les oiseaux, y compris le mythe selon lequel le verre pour la sécurité des oiseaux n'est pas attrayant.

In the symphony of materials that shape our skylines, steel plays the lead role - silent, strong, and incredibly versatile. This remarkable metal is the unsung hero of modern architecture, offering both the skeleton and the soul of the structures it supports. 🏢   Why is steel so pivotal, you ask? Its advantages stretch as wide as the bridges it builds and as high as the skyscrapers it forms. 🌉🏙️ First off, its strength-to-weight ratio is unmatched, allowing for slender yet robust designs that challenge the clouds. Its flexibility in design means architects' imaginations can soar without limits, from the sweeping curves of art museums to the bold angles of corporate headquarters. 📐   But steel’s benefits go beyond just strength and beauty. It's incredibly recyclable, making it a champion of sustainability in the construction world. ♻️ Over 90% of steel in buildings can be reused without loss of quality, reducing the demand for new raw materials and minimizing environmental impact. This circle of life, from construction to recycling and back, embodies the essence of eco-friendly design. 🔄   Steel is not just the backbone of modern architecture; it is the heart that pumps life into our urban landscapes, merging beauty, strength, and sustainability in a dance of endless possibilities. Here's to steel - the unsung hero of our built environment.   #SteelInArchitecture #ModernMarvels #SustainableDesign #ArchitecturalInnovation #StrengthAndBeauty

Architectural time travel refers to the concept of experiencing different historical periods through architecture. This can be achieved in several ways: 🔴Restoration and Preservation: Historical buildings and sites are restored to their original state, allowing visitors to experience the architecture as it was during its prime. Examples include the restoration of ancient ruins, castles, and historical landmarks. 🔴Reconstruction: Recreating buildings or sites that no longer exist. This often involves using historical records, drawings, and artifacts to build accurate replicas. An example is the reconstruction of the Globe Theatre in London. 🔴Adaptive Reuse: Modernizing historical buildings for contemporary use while preserving their architectural integrity. This can involve converting old factories into lofts, repurposing churches into museums, or transforming palaces into hotels. 🔴Architectural Styles in New Construction: Designing new buildings that emulate historical architectural styles. This can be seen in themed resorts, certain urban developments, and residential areas where a particular historical aesthetic is desired. 🔴Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality: Using technology to recreate historical environments digitally. This allows users to explore and interact with architectural wonders of the past without leaving their homes. Virtual reconstructions of ancient cities and immersive historical tours are examples of this approach. 🔴Cultural and Historical Tours: Guided tours that focus on the architectural history of a location, providing context and insights into different eras. These tours often cover a range of architectural styles and periods, offering a comprehensive view of the area's evolution. By engaging with these methods, people can experience the architectural and cultural heritage of different periods, gaining a deeper understanding of historical contexts and the evolution of design and construction techniques. #timeline #architectural #history #timetravel #nostalgia #design #buildings #viral #favourite
