Instagrammer creates architectural AI designs inspired by food

2024-07-05T18:23:00-04:00

Fatih Ekşi, the popular Istanbul-based architectural designer, has shared some thoughts on the creative process behind his work, which has garnered over a million combined followers on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube.

His followers were recently treated to some playful, food-inspired architectural creations made using AI tools by his visualization studio Blick 3D.

New 'Zillow Gone Wild' HGTV show to launch inspired by popular Instagram account

2024-05-02T12:00:00-04:00

Friday, May 3rd, will see the launch of a new show on HGTV inspired by the popular Instagram account Zillow Gone Wild. The show, which bears the same name as the social media account, will offer insights into “exceptionally weird, wacky, and wild properties that sellers put on the market every day.”

Hosted by actor and comedian Jack McBrayer, the series will feature characters from non-traditional homes with distinctive decor and imaginative architecture. The history of each will be explored, alongside backstories from buyers and sellers. Among the homes set to be featured are a house in Berkeley, California, designed by a jazz musician, and a home in New Orleans with an eclectic parlor lounge.

Archinect readers predict the 2024 Pritzker Prize winner

2024-03-01T14:05:00-05:00

Our annual Archinect readers’ predictions for this year’s Pritzker Architecture Prize have once again spurred a lively discussion forum thread full of guesses as to which architect will become the 53rd official laureate when the prize is announced on Tuesday, March 5.

Last year, our social media polls had the eventual winner, David Chipperfield, over a group of frontrunners that mostly carried over to 2024, namely Jeanne Gang, Kengo Kuma, and Bjarke Ingels.

Alejandro Aravena (also the 2016 Pritzker laureate) is the jury chair for the sixth consecutive year, joined by the prize’s Executive Director Manuela Lucá-Dazio; Columbia GSAPP professor Barry Bergdoll; Yale SoA dean Deborah Berke; retired U.S. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer; the critic and Brazilian Ambassador to India André Aranha Corrêa do Lago; and the 2010 and 2012 laureates Kazuyo Sejima and Wang Shu.

Here's what some of the commenters in the discussion thread predicted:

Nordic 'citizen design critics' are gaining influence thanks to their online popularity

2023-08-07T18:07:00-04:00

Founded in Sweden in 2014 as a public Facebook group, [Architectural Uprising] is a collective of citizen design critics who object to what organizers call the “continued uglification” of developments in Nordic cities, and push for a return to classically informed design. [...] The movement’s size and persistence, however, has earned it a seat in the discourse. “When [historians] talk about architecture during these years, [the Architectural Uprising] will be part of that history”

A new report in Bloomberg tells of the staying power of social media-driven architectural criticism. Projects lambasted by the popular (mostly) Scandinavian group include Oslo’s new National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design by architect Klaus Schuwerk and estudio Herreros’ Munch Museum, which Oliver Wainwright also panned.

Its presence has apparently spurred Norwegian firm MAD Arkitektur’s concessions on the Sandakerveien 58 B/C renovation and other projects. Politicians in Norway have even begun reaching out for tacit endorsements in a turn mirroring the "ugly" debate in America concerning the design of federal buildings that has become a charge of late for Republicans in love with the concept of classicism in spite of its racist underpinnings and widely-critiqued past.

2023-03-06T19:01:00-05:00

The results are in for Archinect readers’ annual Pritzker Prize predictions!

Following this discussion forum thread and quick social media polling, Archinectors have come up with their best guesses (along with the usual sarcastic responses) as to who will succeed recent laureates Balkrishna Doshi, Lacaton & Vassal, and Diébédo Francis Kéré for architecture’s highest honor before the winner of this year’s prize will be officially announced tomorrow, March 7th.

The polls on Archinect's Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram channels produced a nearly neck-and-neck tie between David Adjaye and David Chipperfield, likely in response to their mid-career and recent works (including the recent Abrahamic Family House and James Simon Gallery, respectively) and ignoring their criticisms and minor controversies. Moshe Safdie, who just published a memoir and opened important new buildings in South America, was another popular name, along with Jeanne Gang and Obama Presidential Center designers TWBT...

Hood Century's solitary quest to preserve Black modernist heritage is spurring social media users to action

2023-01-18T13:20:00-05:00

Jerald Cooper, who lives in Cincinnati, wants to recognize and help preserve modern architecture and interior design that have added to the aesthetic and culture of many Black communities. His aim is to make architecture and design more accessible by using layman’s language to break down barriers typically set up by white academics with advanced degrees, and educate more people who are now empowered through social media to comment on the structural beauty of a modernist tower.

The music industry marketing consultant started the passion project after a treasured local West End church was demolished in order to make room for Populous’ $250 million new Cincinnati F.C. stadium in 2019, an act which he calls “infrastructural trauma.” Since then, he has grown an online audience of more than 83,000 followers with his Instagram account Hood Century, offering analysis that breaks down Black modernism into three categories: made for, handed down, and claimed.

The effort places him in line with others, such as the newly-funded Conserving Black Modernism project from the Getty and National Trust for Historic Preservation. Jerald Cooper represents the potential for social media adept architecture aficionados to combat what he called a “lack of knowing” in their own communities. As the former USC architecture dean Milton Curry says, “the complex story of Modernism cannot be fully revealed without new research on its impacts in and on the Black communities that it has t...

Controversy at SCI-Arc over labor practices leads to faculty members placed on leave. Isolated incident or a wake up call for the industry at large?

2022-04-01T15:30:00-04:00

On Friday, March 25th, a panel discussion became a lightning rod striking attention to the questionable ethics of architectural academia and professional practice. Depending on what news and social media platforms you follow, keeping track of the events that followed SCI-Arc's Basecamp lectures can appear like organized chaos.

Everyone has an opinion. Everyone has a "take" on the highly controversial and unsettling comments. But before I dive into what's already been documented and shared across the internet, it's vital to address the larger issues. Discussions surrounding work and studio culture within the architecture community are nothing new. It would be foolish to say that those working within the industry at both the professional practice and academic levels are unaware of the highly problematic issues of labor and equitable working conditions.

Ongoing efforts to reform toxic and exploitative work environments have been pushed to the forefront thanks to organizations like Th...

Prominent Russian architectural school, Strelka Institute, suspends activities in protest of Ukraine invasion

2022-02-28T14:53:00-05:00

As casualties mount in Vladimir Putin's war of aggression against neighboring Ukraine, the prominent Moscow-based Strelka Institute for Media Architecture and Design has issued a statement condemning the loss of life and announcing that it has suspended all academic activities until further notice.

The 12-year-old institute, which in the past has contributed to the country’s design for the 2014 Venice Biennale, is amongst the most influential architecture schools in eastern Europe and now joins several other academic and cultural institutions inside Russia in expressing their opposition to what the government still insists on calling a “special military operation.”

It's 2022, and the state of architecture viewership continues to rely on visual images that capture and inspire.

Architecture fans are unhappy over the future of Robert Bruno’s quirky Steel House in Texas

2022-01-07T14:39:00-05:00

Two patrons of former Texas Tech University professor Robert Bruno’s famous Ransom Canyon are up in arms over the fate of one of American architectural history’s most significant self-built structures.

Texas Monthly is reporting that plans for the corten steel creation have caused an outcry of sorts following news of its recent conversion into a vacation rental outside of Lubbock.

Born out of a sculptural installation that now stands in front of Texas Tech’s architecture building, construction began in 1973 on the structure that eventually grew to around 2,200-square-feet. It took Bruno 35 years to complete the structure, which he moved into just months before his death from cancer in 2008. Now, over a decade after it was last inhabited, the home’s future has become the exclusive endeavor of an enterprising young realtor named Courtney Bartosh.

Bartosh began listing the home for $1.75 million back in November after acquiring the property from Bruno’s daughter Christina, who had bee...

Many firms not capitalizing on digital marketing or technology, AIA report finds

2021-12-02T13:42:00-05:00

A new report from the American Institute of Architects has found that business marketing remains underutilized among U.S. architecture firms. The finding forms part of the newly released Technology, Culture, & the Future of the Architectural Firm report, which explores the influence of technology adoption on workflow and profitability in U.S. practices.

The 69-page report, available to download for free, notes that cultural and technological barriers currently hamper firms’ embrace of business development and marketing as a way of securing growth. “89% of respondents agree that relationships matter more than marketing for winning new business, and only 43% agree that digital/social marketing is important to them,” says the report. “However, firms that use social media are successful at driving leads through these channels.”

When asked what factors expect to drive their growth over the next three years, ...

When Facebook and Instagram went dark, architecture Twitter was there for the laughs

2021-10-05T11:46:00-04:00

In my opinion, remembering what it was like before social media and high-speed internet access is a gift. The early days of social media barely resemble the landscape of how impressionable and profit-driven it is today. Data privacy wasn't considered "a thing," and promoting a product or service back then was influential thanks to television, radio, and print media. However, when social media titans Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp went down, many came flooding back to Twitter to stay connected. Thanks to this 6-hour social media outage, 'architecture Twitter' was there to express what many of us were thinking.

Social media is defined as "forms of electronic communication (such as websites for social networking and microblogging) through which users create online communities to share information, ideas, personal messages, and other content (such as videos)." Today, this term has become synonymous with platforms like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, WhatsApp, and Twitter to name a few...

Archinect's pick of architecture firms to follow, Instagram edition

2021-04-21T09:06:00-04:00

With social media ruling media consumption, it's easy to get overwhelmed with the various platforms, profiles, and messages being shared. Platforms like Instagram are quick to keep the public informed whether we wanted it or not. However, with the increased abundance of screen time and endless scrolling through images and text, the dreaded content fatigue soon emerged. Social media platforms transformed into blackholes of continuous media overload.

The amount of time spent on these apps has sparked controversy and criticism regarding architecture's relationship to Instagram. However, the platform has also facilitated and expanded the understanding of media discourse revolving around firm work, digital portfolios, PR, and design activism. While architecture "viewership" has changed thanks to digital sharing platforms like Instagram, Archinect reflects on firms that use the platform as a way to communicate visually curated content for more than the infamous "like."

How will Clubhouse impact the architecture community?

2021-02-02T12:11:00-05:00

Clubhouse is a new invite-only audio-chat social networking application. The company describes its platform as a place "where people around the world come together to talk, listen and learn from each other in real-time." It has been exploding recently.

Elon Musk popped into this comedy show on Sunday before his big interview on "Good Time."

Elon Musk on Clubhouse

The booming news around the app has recently been on Elon Musk's appearance in one of the rooms this past Sunday. I made it into one of the "overflow" rooms to listen to Elon speak in real-time about several topics stemming from future life on Mars to artificial intelligence to cyborgs. Were you there? What'd you think?

But before that, I was spending my time in rooms focused on architecture and design. I've been surprised at the large architecture community on the platform and the positive nature of many conversations. And I have been wondering how an application like Clubhouse might influence fields like architecture.
