RETHINK Design Guide by Nicola Gillen,Pippa Nissen,Julia Park,Adam Scott,Sumita Singha,Helen Taylor,Ian Taylor,Sarah Featherstone Pdf

The world has changed. How will society emerge post-pandemic? Will we take the opportunity to reset the status quo? And, if so, what possibilities are there for architects to take the initiative in designing this new world? This innovative design guide draws together expert guidance on designing in the immediate aftermath of the pandemic for key architectural sectors: housing, workplace, civic and cultural, hospitality, education, infrastructure and civic placemaking. It provides design inspiration to architects on how they can respond to the challenges and opportunities of a post-pandemic environment and how architects ensure they are at the forefront of the best design in this new world. Looking at each sector in turn, it covers the challenges specific to each, and how delivering these designs might differ from the pre-pandemic world. As well as post-pandemic design, the vital issue of climate change will be threaded through each sector, with many cross-overs between designing for the climate emergency and designing for a world after a pandemic. Both seek to make the world a safer, happier and more resilient place. Written by set of contributing design experts, this book is for all architects, whether sole practitioners or working in a larger practice. As well as inspirational design guidance, it also provides client perspectives – crucial for understanding how clients are planning for the future too.

It points to new opportunities to create products and services that help users in new ways. The book includes a deck of user archetype cards and step-by-step team activities for unlocking new user-centered thinking and design inspiration.

Eric sees the potential for organizations to refine their culture, embracing the uniqueness and passion each person brings to their work. This refreshing and inspiring book is a must-read for any business leader who wants to leapfrog their competition during a period of rapid technological change." - Jim DewaldDEAN, HASKAYNE SCHOOL OF BUSINESS, UNIVERSITY OF CALGARY This is one of the most important books a leader in today's work world can read.

Termuende also explores more dynamic ways to recruit, write job descriptions and overall "how" to tell your company's story. One of the biggest takeaways however is the importance of focusing on your employees as individuals and not their generation." - Gareth McVicarMANAGER, LEADERSHIP PROGRAMS, UNIVERSITY OF CALGARY

Energy, People, Buildings by Judit Kimpian,Sofie Pelsmakers,Hattie Hartman Pdf

Energy performance feedback is an essential tool in addressing the current climate crisis. However, this is not simply another theoretical text about energy performance in buildings. This book is for anyone who wants to better understand how energy is used in buildings, and how to drive down operational energy use – whether you’re an architect, student, client, building services engineer, contractor, building operator or other stakeholder. Focusing on evidence from feedback on buildings in use, it explains what it takes to get them to perform as expected, as well as the reasons why they often fail. Energy, People, Buildings draws extensively on the findings of studies, UK government-funded building performance evaluations and on original research into seven case studies from across the UK and abroad that have achieved exemplary energy use through building performance feedback. Providing a clear roadmap to understanding aspects that impact building users’ comfort and satisfaction, it also outlines the factors behind energy use and how to track it across the life of a project to ensure that your building performs as intended. Case studies include: the Everyman Theatre, Liverpool; Rocky Mountain Institute Innovation Center, Colorado; and Carrowbreck Meadow, Norwich. Featured architects: AHMM, AHR, Architype, Hamson Barron Smith, Haworth Tompkins, Henning Larsen Architects and ZGF Architects.

Rethinking Sexuality by Dr. Juli Slattery Pdf

This ground-breaking resource challenges and equips Christians to think and act biblically and compassionately in matters of sexuality. Sexual abuse, sex addiction, gender confusion, brokenness, and shame plague today's world, and people are seeking clarity and hope. By contesting long-held cultural paradigms, this book equips you to see how sexuality is rooted in the broader context of God's heart and His work for us on earth. It provides a framework from which to understand the big picture of sexual challenges and wholeness, and helps you recognize that every sexual question is ultimately a spiritual one. It shifts the paradigm from combating sexual problems to confidently proclaiming and modeling the road to sacred sexuality. Instead of arguing with the world about what's right and wrong about sexual choices, this practical resource equips you to share the love and grace of Jesus as you encounter the pain of sexual brokenness--your own or someone else's.

Rethink Redesign Reconstruct by Mark Wasserman Pdf

It's often said that for every creative problem, there's more than one solution. Rethink Redesign Reconstruct is a book built on this principle. Author Mark Wasserman creates a unique experiment in design that's much like the process of remixing music. Here's how it works: RE:THINK Top designers were given the source files to one of 37 print or electronic designs and asked to reinterpret the original art into new creations. They could use as many or as few of the original elements as they wished. Then the author interviewed each designer to learn how they approached the process, what their inspirations were, and how they really felt about the other designs. RE:DESIGN Rethink Redesign Reconstruct is filled with over 220 visuals, most of which were created especially for this book. Packed full of inspiration, this book allows you to see the process behind each design by providing detailed question-and-answer sessions with each designer. RE:CONSTRUCT This visual feast offers wild and freeform designs to give you a creative jolt as well as detailed examinations of how other approaches also could have worked for the client. The comprehensive range of design styles and brand new work found in Rethink Redesign Reconstruct is just the inspiration you need to make your work shine!
