It's back to the grind with a new season of architecture and design events. Wondering where other design-inclined folks are gathering in the Greater L.A. area? Archinect and Bustler compiled a snappy list of noteworthy happenings around town that are not to be missed.

Check back regularly so you don't miss out on our latest event recommendations. Here are this week's L.A. picks.

Transit Oriented LA | October 4, recommended by Amelia Taylor-Hochberg

Come hear big names in LA transportation and urban planning discuss the future of getting around in the region. Moderated by Christopher Hawthorne, architecture critic for the LA Times, the event has a special reduced ticket price for students.

SCI-Arc Lecture: Amale Andraos | October 5, recommended by Nicholas Korody

While the architecture monograph was once "thought to be dead", according to Amale Andraos, Dean of GSAPP at Columbia, its recent resurgence proves its continuing relevance. Andraos will lecture on WORKac, vis a vis the making of its recent monograph.

Greenbuild International Conference & Expo | October 5-7, recommended by Alexander Walter

Since building green isn't an option anymore these days but (hopefully!) at the core of every architect's design process, the Greenbuild conference and expo provides essential opportunities for networking and knowledge exchange. Oh, and Bjarke Ingels will be Friday's closing plenary keynote speaker.
