The Melbourne School of Design is featured in Issue No. 378  of Architectures CREE entitled Anticipation.

“Inaugurated in 2014 and already a  multi-award winning project, the Melbourne School of Design appears as a unique place of learning. Its design answers to an innovative collaborative process that helped extend the investigations in the matter of structure, construction, environmental systems and finishes. The result: an unclassifiable architectural work that claims its performative dimension.”

Modern architecture has perpetually generated new phases of the city through innovative notions of urban housing. Alternative lifestyles, technologies, and design tools are redefining fundamental components of the discipline of architecture such as program, scale, material, fabrication, and form. What are these new visions and how can they be applied to new urban housing models? – UNDER PRESSURE

MILAD ZABETI INTERVIEWS NADER FOR MEMAR MAGAZINE

Posted on October 20th, 2016 by Nicole Sakr

Posted under: Press

‘Much of what is done today emerges out of ease –often the ease that technology has offered. The question is how we, as critics of our own work, introduce a level of intellectual friction to frame issues with some level of depth and the complexity that often underlies the nature of a design challenge.’

This Building Likes Me: The Architectural Grain

Posted on October 14th, 2016 by Nicole Sakr

Posted under: _Melbourne School of Design, Press

Nader contributed an essay entitled ‘The Architectural Grain to longtime collaborator John Wardle Architects’ THIS BUILDING LIKES ME book.

In what turned out to be a fortuitous turn of events, John Wardle was out of the country when we were to lecture together at the University of Melbourne – this in a bid to win the commission for the new Melbourne School of Design (MSD) building. John was unfazed, although he understood how important it was for us to speak as one on the same podium. Coming together – not as the traditional, international-local shotgun marriage, but as a true collaboration – we had yet to prove how we could bridge the Pacific to convene on the same conceptual platform. Sharing a common intuition, we had not actually worked together; we could only interpret commonalities through a series of projects that, in our minds, could be construed as blood relatives, no matter how far apart they were conceived and built. 

Read on to see how NADAAA and JWA’s shared affinity of the ‘grain’ helped us form an unforgettable collaboration HERE.

CW Keller on NADAAA

Posted on October 7th, 2016 by Nicole Sakr

Posted under: Press

Archinect interviews Shawn Keller about CW Keller’s work and how they collaborate with architects.

Read the full article HERE.

“The best examples for us are firms like NADAAA, who we’ve worked with for 10 years. Nader Tehrani understands the value of talking with fabricators. Whether it’s us or a metal facade company or a glazing company, getting in and understanding what they do and how they do it informs his designs. He brings that collaboration and information to a lot of the designs that he’s doing.”

LETTERS TO THE DEVELOPER

Letters-to-the-developer

“As part of this project, a select group of architects, curators, historians, and critics have each  been asked to write a letter to a New York City-based developer who should be recognized for making a positive contribution to public life. The letter articulates one exceptional act that the developer has carried out; an act that goes beyond common practice and that participants believe should become part of the norm.”
