This is the TED talk with Daniel Libeskind in which as you can see from the title, conveys 17 inspirational words of Architecture. We first came across this talk quite some time ago and were thoroughly impressed with the speech he gave and the ideas he presented. We however were definitely on the opposite side of the norm. Please check out the immense bashing he receives from a very diverse and educated crowd in the comments. Person upon person goes into some sort of rhetoric about how abysmal his talk and his Architecture are. Some give specific examples while others just shed feelings. A few of us here have been to the Berlin Museum (VIDEO LINK) as well as the WestSide Shopping Centre in Switzerland and have found both of them to be just as physically and mentally stimulating as it is visually. Consequently, several people we encountered and discussed with have found his Museum in Denver to be an utter failure. With that said we will leave the discussions up to you and hope you find the two videos and the post helpful in your search for true design.

In this part of the series it showcases one of the Project Managers on the Big Dig Project. The Big Dig was the single most expensive Highway Project in the history of the United States. One of the many things left over during the construction process was 20,000 tons of concrete and 38,000 tons of steel. One the Project managers asked if might have some of the left over debris and they easily obliged. He then proceeded to find a lot, an architecture firm (Single Speed Design), and then walked them through the debris until they found all the pieces necessary  to building a recycled home. Concrete platforms that span much longer distances then normal, have weight bearing loads much greater so they can support a full garden on the roof, and many other great things were all at the Architects disposal thanks to the type of material and the cost. All the photos and the information for this house are posted as well under the firm Single Speed Design (SsD)

Extreme Architecture before Olympic Games http://archlandscapes.com/2009/inspiration/11/video-10-green-beijing-extreme-architecture-before-olympic-games/ http://archlandscapes.com/2009/inspiration/11/video-10-green-beijing-extreme-architecture-before-olympic-games/#comments Fri, 20 Nov 2009 09:15:34 +0000 http://archlandscapes.com/?p=4702 This is the video from National Geographic showcasing the design and construction of Samsung Pavilion for the past olympic games by firm IMAGINATION. Not only is this structure built in 3 months, it is taken down almost immediately after. If you are from the states, this video will blow you away. Watch as construction workers walk around with thongs, no shirts, sleep on the site, work non-stop, and even have other construction crews come along and start excavating on the site. This video is an absolute insight into the ways in which things are done in the design world (Provided you are not from China) outside. From start to finish this video is a great watch.

Please check out the e-mail responses below on peoples different takes on their architecture. Several very rational and insightful thoughts are displayed with the wonderful type of design dialogue we should be using every day. Also please take a look at the REX post on the site for the Charles Wyly Theater in Dallas, the article about several young Architects from OMA, and check out more great talks from TED.

It is truly a pleasure to see someone from your field who has made a name for themselves still possess genuine feelings for his fellow man/woman. We were more inspired by his talk and demeanor then we were by his actual work. This is saying a lot because his work is still very dynamic. This talk is a little old but contains a ton of inspiration. We hope you find some of the same beauty we have in this talk by Moshe Safdie on TED.

The animation and music gave us chills thinking of what an amazing field of work we get to participate in. Sure hope you enjoy it as much as us.

The amount of money that goes into these designs is nothing short of astounding. This video which appears to be done with some sort of 3d modeling program (3ds max+vray) then added to adobe after effects. (that is my best guess) Please check out the post for visuals and download the pdf here for more info.  Marina-South-Gardens-by-the-Bay-Singapore

A lovely video/poem about the amount of time a designer puts in and the sacrifices one makes to be new and ever productive on the search for greatness.

This video is from a good friend of ours showcasing a dialogue between Bruce Willis and Denzel Washington from the movie The Siege. Check out some of the other great stuff Eric Herrmann has done too.
