Nearing Completion

The construction of the University of Melbourne FABP has been very exciting and we are glad to see it actively documented through time lapse cameras, a university blog and video series. The latest video by the university captures John Wardle and Nader Tehrani’s visit to the site as the building nears completion. We can’t wait to share the finished project.

RUNNING FOR A CAUSE

Posted on April 29th, 2014 by Sia Herr

This year’s Boston Marathon held a special meaning for the City of Boston. NADAAA’s principal, Nader Tehrani, ran in the race as part of MIT Strong which raised funds in honor of Officer Sean A. Collier, the young officer who was senselessly shot and killed while serving the MIT community.  We are proud to say that Nader finished the 26.2 mile course and raised over $9,000.  All of this have not been possible without everyone’s donations and support, especially Jim Harrington’s sign at heartbreak hill.

Unexpected Uses

Since its opening,  NADAAA has come across images of interesting ways people have used the RISD Fleet Library.  What was conceived as a reading lounge and collective ‘living room’ for student dormitories housed above the library has transformed into a stage, art gallery and ceremony backdrop.  Have you seen the space used in any other ways?  Let us know!
