GSD Alumni: Terreform ONE

GSD BRAINS + BROOKLYN BRAWN = INNOVATIVE LAB: On a lovely summer evening in late July, 150 GSD students, alumni and friends gathered on a Brooklyn rooftop, as the sun set over Manhattan. The site was the New Lab a project infused with the energy and creativity of GSD alumni and friends. The lab inhabits a temporary facility in the Brooklyn Navy Yard where innovation in design, prototyping and new manufacturing are de rigueur. Embracing the Navy Yard’s industrial past, the New Lab envisions the “sustainable industrial park of the future” – it provides equipment, office space and other resources for tenants, creating an incubator for design and entrepreneurship. Hosted in the lab’s temporary Beta site, guests looked out onto the construction of the new 84,000 square foot facility, designed by GSD alumni John Marvel (MArch ‘86). The cocktail reception was co-sponsored by the Harvard Graduate School of Design Alumni Relations Office and Mitch Joachim (MAUD ’02) and Maria Aiolova (MAUD '02), co-founders of Terreform ONE, a tenant in the New Lab, which “aims to integrate the ecological possibilities of New York City and inspire like-minded projects in urban centers worldwide.”

Terreform ONE is a winner of the Urban Design Merit Award.

The Center for Architecture and AIA New York Chapter are pleased to announce that the AIANY 2013 Design Awards exhibition is travelling to the Buenos Aires International Biennial of Architecture, where the show will be on view from Saturday, September 21 through Sunday, October 13.

AIA New York’s annual Design Awards Program recognizes outstanding architectural design by New York City architects, designers, landscape architects, and planners and exemplary work in New York City by those practicing anywhere in the world. The purpose of the awards program is to honor the architects, clients, and consultants who work together to achieve design excellence in New York City and around the globe.

Awards were given in four categories: Architecture, Interiors, Projects, and Urban Design. Independent, internationally prominent, three-person juries determine the number of awards given in each category. This year, they evaluated 405 entries for design quality, program resolution, innovation, thoughtfulness, and originality. “Honor” and “merit” awards were given to forty-two projects.

Architecture Record; Terreform ONE in Navy Yard

"Terreform ONE, a nonprofit design group and “ecological lab,” will be located there. Currently, they are housed in a temporary space next door. Terreform explores green design in cities, and recently studied how New York could produce its own food, water, and energy. One good example of what they envision can already be found in the Navy Yard: Brooklyn Grange, a 2.5-acre rooftop farm."

Reinvent Adaptive Cities with Alex Steffen, Mitchell Joachim and more

Alex Steffen thinks cities of today are incredibly brittle, and they need to quickly become much more adaptable. All the core infrastructures of cities were built before before anyone heard of global warming but now we face new challenges ranging from floods to droughts. Steffen has some big ideas about what cities can start doing now to "ruggedize" and be ready for our more volatile future. We've got a terrific lineup in the roundtable to help him figure all out. Watch Now →
