Designing for the International Baccalaureate Curriculum What IB Actually Need from Their Buildings The IB doesn’t prescribe architecture. That’s the problem and the opportunity. Most educational philosophies with architectural implications — Waldorf, Montessori, Reggio Emilia — were founded by educators who thought deeply about space.

Towards a New Architectural Language Synthesizing Architecture, Dance, and Forces (ADF) Abstract This paper explores the interdisciplinary intersection between architecture, dance, and forces to propose a new architectural framework—ADF (Architecture, Dance, Forces). By examining the spatial principles of architecture, the dynamic language of dance, and the physics of forces, this synthesis seeks to redefine how …

The sun has peeked out of the window, you open it and feel the morning breeze blowing through the long window opening, and the sunbeams swirling restfully warming your face. You hear Mama’s pots and pans working and before …
Precision Buildability The Case for a Rhino-VisualARQ Workflow in Construction In the modern AEC (Architecture, Engineering, and Construction) industry, “BIM” is often synonymous with large databases and heavy documentation sets. However, as designs become more complex and timelines tighter, a new priority has emerged: Precision Buildability. This is not just about producing a set of …
Beyond the Energy Bill Material Selection is the Next Frontier for Sustainable Buildings The conversation around sustainable construction in Greece has traditionally focused on one crucial element, energy efficiency. It makes sense. Reducing the electricity and heating oil needed to run a building saves money and lowers emissions immediately. However, as our buildings become highly …
