Online Master Class
Real Estate in the Corporation – More than just an Expense
Date: Oct 7th 2014 at 6:00 PM Madrid time.
Speaker: Sharon Liebowitz, VP of Global Real Estate, JPMorgan Chase

Brought to you by: IE School of Architecture & Design

Real Estate is among the top three expenses for most corporations, and as such, needs to be aggressively managed. But, in addition to managing real estate as an expense item, real estate also needs to be managed as a strategic asset. This can include using the workspace to attract talent, developing a location strategy to situate offices near the best labor pool, or creating an office environment that supports collaboration. Deploying the capabilities of real estate as a strategic asset enables businesses to achieve their priorities.

Recognizing that architectural education both in Spain and around the world follows limited models – either a technical focus or and artistic one - and that the demands of current society, especially in a time of economic fragility and uncertainly, IE School of Architecture and Design decided to launch the Master in Architectural Management and Design in 2011. One purpose was to broaden the profile of professionals in order to help them obtain the necessary tools to adapt to the new economic scenario. We considered that bridging the gap between advanced design and management skills was one response to the endemic situation that architects were facing.

The Master in Architectural Management and Design was designed by a multidisciplinary team of academics and professionals who envisioned the new profile that could respond both to societal demands and professional needs. The combination of soft ski...

Co-Working or Die! or How New Working Environments Are Changing The World

2013-12-10T15:51:00-05:00

This sponsored post is brought to you by IE School of Architecture & Design:

The word Design is beginning to feel a little bit short to define some of the concepts that certain architectural firms are currently developing in the field of working environments.

Their action´s range from the design of furniture to the urban scale, but they all have in common the belief that the new ways of working and living based in cooperation and sharing of knowledge are rapidly changing the world.

Co-working clusters like IMPACT HUB are already based in more than 40 cities worldwide, while global tech companies like Google are creating shared open spaces for young entrepreneurs.

Even cities like Las Vegas are trying to regenerate their districts through the creation of “coworking families”.

Join the IE Master in Work Space Design to learn from some of the outstanding design professionals that are undertaking these fascinating works worldwide.

The Sustainability Hangover: a film starring architects.

2013-10-25T17:49:00-04:00

Brought to you by IE School of Architecture & Design:

By the Academic Director of the IE Master in Architectural Management and Design, Juan Lago Novás.

I’m sure most of us have seen the inspiring talk by Bjarke Ingels at TED about “Hedonistic sustainability”, but I would like to reflect about it from an educational point of view and the responsibility of educators about this.

One of the many positive situations that this world economic crisis has produced, is probably the fact that our teen age in the 21st century has finished. There are no more parties, no more “everything is going to be ok” and no more cash to spend in that last drink… Architects must start taking responsibilities towards our environment, and I mean an environment beyond trees on buildings or birds on trendy images. We all know by now the impact that the AEC industry has in the green environment. Over the last two decades, architects have done a big effort to design more sustainable buildings, sustainable...

Architecture, Cities and Nature

2013-06-11T19:13:00-04:00

Date: June 19, 2013. 5:00 PM Madrid time
Title: “Architecture, Cities and Nature”
Speaker: Stan Allen,SAA Prinicipal. Academic Advisor at IE Master in Architectural Design.

IE Master in Architectural Design presents the Online Master Classes series.

Introducing: “Architecture, Cities and Nature”

Traditional histories of Urbanism have seen the city as something separate from nature, organized according to its own rules and conventions. Given the current emphasis on environment and sustainability, and recent experiments in the sustainable urbanism, it makes sense to revisit the history of the city from a new perspective. This seminar will look briefly at the history of the city from the 19th century to the present through the lens of landscape and nature. Beginning with Haussmann and Cerda, we will look at Fredrick Law Olmsted and the City Beautiful Movement, Frank Lloyd Wright’s Broadacre City proposal and post-war suburban development in the US, ending with the emergenc...

Introducing: "Codesigning Workspace: The future for collaborative environments" with Oliver Marlow from Studio Tilt.

"Collaboration is by its very definition about people, and about transforming their relationships with one another. Using space as a way to transform these relationships is at the heart of a collaborative environment: It needs to be open, inspiring, collegiate and creative.

Designing workspace is changing too, to keep up. Without the user at the heart of workspace design a space will suffer in its conception. But fostering and harnessing these values as the space evolves is the crucial next step to the environment of the future, remaining adaptable, interactive, and iterative. How do we do...
