The AIA Committee on the Environment is hosting a Sustainability Slam and you're invited!

Board & Vellum is once again teaming up with Model Remodel to present Ada's Technical Books & Cafe in a Pecha Kucha-style event on Wednesday, April 22nd. We're celebrating Earth Day through a celebration of sustainable design and green building, along with 5 other projects at this fun local mixer. The event is free, but you do need to rsvp. Click over to the event page for all the details.

Use Your Words (Even When You Can’t)

Even in a profession where we quite literally draw pictures to communicate, words are incredibly important, too. Use them carefully, and precisely to get the job done right, and don’t forget that words can communicate very differently if they are said out loud versus written down, and there’s a time and place for both.

Channeling Experience: Storytelling in the Spaces We Design

Although we humans have invented new ways of sharing knowledge beyond the sharing of stories to one other over the firepit, storytelling is a key part of our culture. (Who doesn’t love a good story?) But beyond the stories we tell out loud, there is storytelling in spaces we design, too.

Unlikely Inspiration: The Strange Journeys of the Creative Process

A lot of times, unlikely inspiration solves your problems. To non-designers, it may seem a little crazy, but just as any odd thing can remind you of something else entirely, for designers, that experience often triggers their brains about a project they are working on, taking them on a mental journey towards a design solution.
