British architecture needs mavericks more than ever, says RA curator

Nonconformists have a crucial role in shaping British architecture, says the curator of a new Royal Academy exhibition on the work of 12 “maverick” architects. The exhibition Mavericks: Breaking the Mould of British Architecture is on show at London’s Royal Academy. In the gallery and accompanying book, curator Owen Hopkins presents an alternative history of British architecture that focuses on the frequently controversial and often radical work of architects including John Soane, Charles Rennie Mackintosh, Zaha Hadid and FAT. These architects are classed as mavericks because of their unique style, larger-than-life personality or nonconformist approach – qualities Hopkins says contemporary British architecture needs more of.

Why Zaha Hadid’s Gold Medal Matters | Architect Magazine

Joseph Giovannini reports from the medal ceremony about the significance of the award By Joseph Giovannini Mary McCartney/Courtesy RIBA The Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) has awarded its Gold Medal, the highest honor in its repertory, since 1848. This year, on Wednesday, at a black-tie ceremony in RIBA’s stately Art Deco building in London, Zaha Hadid, Hon. FAIA, officially received the award, the first woman in the institute’s history to win it in her own right. In the context of England’s clubby association of architects, still very much a fraternity, awarding the Gold Medal to an Iraqi-born exponent of a radically unorthodox modernism—perhaps best known here for twice winning the Cardiff Opera House competition, only to be rejected twice under cloudy...

Miami Beach moves to clean up Ocean Drive

Ocean Drive City-appointed task force calls for measures like upgrading lighting, boosting police presence By James Teeple After years of complaints about out-of-control noise, petty crime and sidewalks crowded with tables and oversized umbrellas, Miami Beach is taking steps to clean up Ocean Drive. The city’s land use committee, made up of city commissioners, on Wednesday heard from members of the Ocean Drive Task Force, a group of business owners who approached the city about a year ago with complaints of deteriorating conditions on the iconic street. The task force submitted about 30 recommendations, calling for upgrading lighting, increasing police presence, banning music from golf buggies and other vehicles and having restaurant and bar owners scale back the size of café...

Take AD Magazine’s Women in Architecture Survey for Upcoming Special Edition | ArchDaily

Courtesy of Architectural Design   by Romullo Baratto – Translated by Katie Watkins In August 1975, Architectural Design magazine published a special edition about Women in Architecture. At the time, director Monica Pidgeon sent letters to 100 architects asking what women can contribute to architecture that men can’t (and vice-versa), as well as the advantages and disadvantages of being a woman in the profession. Now, 40 years later, a new version of the study aims to repeat Pidgeon’s initiative through an online survey with similar questions. The survey aims to find out what has changed today for women in the profession. Men and women can take the survey until February 24, 2016 and all of the answers will remain anonymous. A summary of the results will be published on...
