SUMMARY:2023 Midwest Quad Conference - “RE-imagine” - University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee
DESCRIPTION:As architects\, imagination is the bedrock of our soul. Our innate longing is to envision a better built environment for our community and the entire world. Architecture has the power to impact everyone at a fundamental level: from the basic need for shelter to the emotional symphony of form. We learn from architects of the past to create beauty never before seen or experienced. \nIn a world of ever-changing variables such as population growth\, diminishing resources\, economic struggles\, and health crises\, we are entrusted with the responsibility of bringing hope to the world through our designs. As architects\, we must decide how to move forward; we must inspire the world to continue to imagine and thrive. \nHow can we maintain the history of our home while embarking on a new chapter? How can new materials produce a new conception of structure and form? How can we re-define the use of a building so that it is utilized to its fullest? How can we protect the beauty of architectural design in a world that seeks pre-fabrication and ease? This is the power of re-imagination. \n\nRe-imagine is a continuation of the AIAS mission to stabilize after the pandemic and encapsulates today’s essence of architecture within Milwaukee\, Wisconsin. With the completion of the world’s tallest mass-timber building\, the new design of the Milwaukee Public Museum which will break ground in 2023\, and the city’s rich\, multicultural history\, Milwaukee exemplifies the way history can help the re-imagination of the future. Through firm and landmark visits\, cultural experiences (and GOOD FOOD!)\, lectures\, networking opportunities\, and workshops\, our UW-Milwaukee Team hopes to provide the Midwest with the resources to re-imagine their communities to improve the future!

SUMMARY:2023 West Quad Conference - “Extremes” - Arizona State University
DESCRIPTION:Just like the fiery rebirth of the mythical symbol\, Phoenix\, Arizona has been at the forefront of growth\, speed\, and innovation in the southwest after a period of extreme transformation in a scorching environment. It was largely an agricultural state until the 1960’s when it started to see massive urban growth that reflected the “american dream”. Automobile centric development\, sprawl of single family structures\, and new industries began to mold the valley into a place fit for urban development and commercial investment. This led to a boom in sporadic and ill-planned urban sprawl\, in an already challenging environment. Today designers all over the area have begun rethinking and reshaping the way that we build and use our spaces with the environmental conditions as a driving factor for change. \n\nThe theme of this conference is based on the architectural and urban challenges that Arizona faces as one of the hottest states in the U.S. Confronted by 111 annual days of triple digit heat\, a continuing water crisis as population booms\, and a 454% increase in heat related deaths since 2014\, the crisis is\, in fact\, here. Although it is one of the hottest locations\, in the next 30 years\, many other cities will be faced with the same challenges. So the “Extremes: Urban Adaptation and Innovation” conference will serve as a warning sign\, a display of experimentation\, and innovation in dire circumstances in the land of scorching growth.

SUMMARY:2023 South Quad Conference - “Revival” - Savannah College of Art & Design
DESCRIPTION:Since it was first laid out in 1733 on a high bluff overlooking the Savannah River by General James Edward Oglethorpe\, the act of preservation has cast a new light on Savannah. The value of preservation has shown tourists and locals alike the beauty of Savannah and its culture\, which is true to the people who lived there many years ago. Savannah and its unique city plan\, from street preservation to architecture\, have become a hallmark of planning and sustainable urban growth\, earning it the moniker “Forest City of the South.” A stroll through Savannah reveals a diverse building tradition spanning three centuries of architectural history. As a result\, historical architectural preservation has evolved into a model concept that can extend beyond the revitalization of a building to include the sustainability of architecture and cities. \n\nOver 1\,000 students study Architecture\, Architectural History\, Furniture Design\, Historic Preservation\, Interior Design\, and Urban Design at the SCAD School of Building Arts. Clark Hall\, initially named Eichberg Hall\, built in 1887 for the Central of Georgia Railroad and re-inhabited by SCAD as a cutting-edge facility for studying the building arts\, houses the School of Building Arts. As a result\, the history of Savannah and SCAD is founded on preserving and revitalizing structures while retaining their original beauty and essence. \nWhen we leave Savannah\, the topic of preservation shapes our thinking and goal of restoring the virtues of preservation and the purpose of a place. Savannah’s National Historic Landmark District is an unrivaled setting for architectural studies. The city’s extensive urban plan and diverse architecture are admired by architects and planners worldwide. Savannah and the surrounding region provide a learning environment that informs the SCAD architecture curriculum through exposure to the urban scale and contextual design and an awareness of the personal scale and relationship between the pedestrian and the city. Students live\, work\, and play in Savannah\, one of the United States’ most extensive National Historic Landmark Districts. SCAD has restored nearly 60 historic buildings in the city\, which are now filled with art\, beauty\, and technology for students to use as a source of insight and inspiration. Outside the university\, students work on regional projects\, gaining real-world experience while balancing business demands\, local priorities\, sustainability\, and heritage value.

SUMMARY:2023 Northeast Quad Conference - “SP[ARCH]” - Marywood University
DESCRIPTION:There is nothing quite like visiting a place of history\, somewhere embedded in its own culture\, to spark a curiosity and interest to learn. Architecture in these locations act as a physical embodiment of a time long gone that can bridge the gap between the seemingly obsolete and present day. The name SP[ARCH] grounds us in the sense of originality and revival\, a flash of light highlighting the success of Scranton’s most prominent moments in industrial history\, then burning consistently throughout the years in the hearts of the people who live here. The successes of Scranton still glow from the day the forges were lit and the electric lights and trolley earned it the title “Electric City.” Through this conference we hope to investigate these timeless legacies and learn to carry their light within us\, shining a new perspective on the future of architecture. \n\nSP[ARCH] will host students at Marywood University and offer programming within downtown Scranton. This conference will explore the historic origins of Scranton born from iron\, coal\, and steam\, to electricity and beyond. Scranton was birthplace and home to a young Jane Jacobs\, a predominant architectural advocate for higher density in cities\, short blocks\, local economies\, and mixed uses. We are excited to share this rich history of Scranton\, our city\, to the Northeast Quad through local firm tours\, historic and cultural city tours. Additionally\, we have exciting studio workshops planned to cover 3D printing\, design build challenges\, birditecture\, and a live K-12 workshop with the students of Nativity Miguel. Finally\, attendees will be invited to attend a career expo with business professionals\, our annual Beaux Arts Ball\, and informal Council of Presidents meeting.
