Over the past 50 years, decision-makers, laypersons, scientific communities, and design professions have repeatedly warned of the impending climate crisis caused by overdependence on fossil fuels. The environmental prophets have admonished that mother earth is on the brink of catastrophe. In response, scientific wizards have boasted that technocratic solutions will save the day. The evidence clearly indicates that a drastic change in policies, lifestyle, and consumption habits is necessary if there is to be a livable world for future generations. Urbanism is the most efficient form of habitation. Embracing and legislating for the traditional pattern of urbanism which is supported by Wi-Fi technology is the livable and sustainable prescription to address climate change and the global dependence on fossil fuels.

Historical guidebooks and maps of Rome provide both an architectural narrative and a snapshot of the city at distinct historical moments. The Historic Urban Environments Lab at the University of Notre Dame (HUE/ND) combined these resources to create Cities in Text: Rome. This interactive research tool was designed to analyze the complex layers of the Eternal City. It provides access to the digital representation of guidebooks produced in the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries. These works have been transcribed, translated, and linked with historic and present-day maps, photographs, and drawings presented on a website and mobile application (hue.nd.edu). The project led to several discoveries, including identifying the existing remains of Rome’s medieval residential façade porticoes, which were measured, drawn, and mapped. The work contributes to an understanding of the evolution of Rome’s cityscape, including its medieval fabric wholly ignored in these guides but still visible today.

The Greenway House is a new residence located in the Garden City of Coral Gables, Florida, inspired by the early revival architecture of the City and traditional architecture. The residence is located in an in-fill site and designed to incorporate a specimen oak tree which is seen from the main house and the carriage house. Unlike typical houses in the neighborhood whose massing is parallel to the street with front and rear yards defined by property setbacks, the orientation of the Greenway main house and carriage house is perpendicular to the street. This orientation allows one to experience the garden, the courtyard with its pool, and the prominent oak tree as part of the architectural ensemble of subtropical components appropriate to the site’s geographic and urban setting. The Greenway House is specifically designed as requested by the clients to be at once traditional in terms of place-making, spatial sequences and the making of the rooms that are identifiable; while still considering contemporary, domestic living where spaces are visually connected and fairly open to the natural environment.

De 2008 a 2017 Robert A.M. Stern Architects fue el responsable del diseño de dos nuevos colleges en la Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut. Los Colleges Benjamin Franklin y Pauli Murray se convirtieron en los colleges decimotercero y decimocuarto del campus universitario. La construcción de los colleges Benjamin Franklin y Pauli Murray implicó la combinación de las tecnologías de construcción más avanzadas con técnicas artesanales tradicionales. Llevamos a cabo una investigación exhaustiva para realizar nuestro trabajo y definir el carácter de cada uno de los colleges y el sinfín de detalles arquitectónicos que constituyen su diseño, desde adornos de piedra hasta vidrieras. En particular, el diseño y la fabricación de las nueve puertas de entrada metálicas ofrecen valiosas lecciones sobre investigación, artesanía y producción para diseños contemporáneos.

Esta obra consistió en la rehabilitación de un edificio del siglo XVIII que forma parte del conjunto conocido como la “Baixa Pombalina”, en Lisboa. Este conjunto urbanístico fue edificado durante la reconstrucción de Lisboa tras el gran terremoto de 1755, conforme al plano de Eugénio dos Santos y Carlos Mardel, durante el reinado de D. José I y bajo tutela del Ministro del Reino Sebastião José de Carvalho e Melo, Marqués de Pombal. Este edificio en particular integra su fachada sur en una de las plazas principales de la “Baixa”, la plaza D. Pedro IV, popularmente conocida como “Rossio”.
