Bauhaus Earth: Re-entanglement – Towards a regenerative built environment for people and planet DESCRIPTION: \nWe are delighted to invite you to a special expert guest lecture with Bauhaus Earth. The lecture, entitled Re-entanglement: Towards a regenerative built environment for people and planet will provide valuable insights into sustainable architectural, urban and societal solutions and will take place as part of the IntCDC Constructive Conversations on 14 May 2024 from 3:00-4:30 p.m.\nThe lecture marks the beginning of an exceptional collaboration between Bauhaus Earth and the IntCDC Cluster of Excellence.\nBauhaus Earth is motivated by the mission to transform building and human settlements from drivers of climate and societal crises into creative forces for systemic regeneration. It aims to foster a future where buildings, cities and landscapes proactively contribute to climate restoration and positively impact the planet and its inhabitants.\nWe are honoured to announce a distinguished panel of speakers from Bauhaus Earth, including:\n\nProf. Dr. Philipp Misselwitz, CEO Bauhaus Earth and Chair of International Urbanism and Design at Technical University Berlin\nDr. Barbara Reck, Director Material Systems at Bauhaus Earth and Senior Research Scientist at Yale University\nAlan Organschi, Director Global Lab Network at Bauhaus Earth, Principal Grey Organschi Architects\nFlorian Foerster, Director Berlin Lab at Bauhaus Earth and Associate Director at Buro Happold\n\nIntCDC Director Prof. Achim Menges will open the session with a brief introduction.\nThe event will take place digitally and in person.\n\n\n\n\nTitle:   \n\n\nRe-entanglement: Towards a regenerative built environment for people and planet\n\n\n\n\nDate:  \n\n\n14 May 2024   |   3:00-4:30 p.m.\n\n\n\n\nLocation:\n\n\nM 2.02, Breitscheidstraße 2A, City Campus, University of Stuttgart\n\n\n\n\nWebex-Link:  \n\n\nThis lecture is part of the AdvanceAEC partner seminar series.

He has initiated global research projects including Architectures of Asylum, Urban Rural Assemblies or PolyUrbanWaters. In 2017, he was appointed Visiting Professor at the University of Witwatersrand (SA) and co-initiated an Urban Lab to rethink urban-oriented, transdisciplinary Masters programmes in South Africa, Nigeria and Germany. From 2017 to 2022, he was Managing Director of the Institute of Architecture at the TU Berlin. In September 2021, he joined renowned climate scientist John Schellnhuber as Executive Director of Bauhaus Earth. Headquartered in Berlin-Potsdam, Bauhaus Earth is a non-profit organisation working to transform the building sector from a major source of anthropogenic environmental and social impacts into a regenerative and ecologically sensitive means of meeting the housing and infrastructural needs of an urbanising global population.\n \nDr. Barbara Reck, Director Material Systems at Bauhaus Earth and Senior Research Scientist at Yale University\nBarbara Reck is a Senior Research Scientist at the Yale School of the Environment with a doctorate in Environmental Engineering from the TU Berlin and seven years of experience as Manager Environmental Affairs at Lufthansa German Airlines prior to joining Yale in 2003. She is Node Lead Systems Analysis & Integration at the U.S. REMADE Institute and Director Material Systems at Bauhaus Earth. She studies material cycles, their degree of circularity, barriers to recycling and implications for embodied carbon; work that informs environmental and resource policy as well as circular economy assessments. Her systems approach to material analyses is rooted in detailed material flow studies for metals that led to the development of internationally recognised, harmonised metal recycling indicators, analyses of metal recycling rates that identified recycling barriers and the corresponding energy implications, metal criticality assessments, and scenarios on the future supply and demand of key technology metals. Recent research topics include circularity assessments of plastics and fibres (pulp & paper, textiles), the potential for integrating AI-coupled robotics into materials recovery facilities to improve recycling outcomes, and the potential for substituting carbon-intensive conventional building materials in urban settings with low-carbon bio- and geogenic alternatives.\n \n\nLeft: Alan Organschi, right: Florian Foerster\nAlan Organschi, Director Global Lab Network at Bauhaus Earth, Principal Grey Organschi Architects\nAl Organschi is Principal and Partner at Gray Organschi Architecture (www.grayorganschi.com), an architectural practice in New Haven, Connecticut, recognised internationally for its integration of design, construction and environmental research. In April 2021, he was appointed Director of the Innovation Labs at the Bauhaus Earth, while continuing to serve as a senior member of the faculty at the Yale School of Architecture, where he has taught architectural design and building technology for two decades and now directs the Yale Building Lab. He has written and lectured extensively on the carbon storage benefits of biogenic material substitution and circular economic strategies in urban building. He is a co-author of the recently published book “Carbon: A Field Manual For Building Designers“ and the scientific paper “Buildings as a Global Carbon Sink” published in Nature Sustainability in January 2020 and winner of the Aquila Capital Transformation Award for contributions to the decarbonisation of Europe. Alan Organschi and his partner Elizabeth Gray were honoured for their work with an Arts and Letters Award in Architecture by the American Academy of Arts and Letters.\n \nFlorian Foerster, Director Berlin Lab at Bauhaus Earth and Associate Director at Buro Happold\nFlorian Foerster has worked for 25 years in structural design at the intersection of engineering and art. working with innovation, sustainability and constructive design at the centre, realising experimental projects through collaborative, transdisciplinary approaches. He understands sustainability in both its ecological and social dimension, combining high-tech based innovations with low-tech or minimal interventions, supported by an interest in the aesthetic and functional impact of buildings and the ecological and social responsibility of planners. Florian Foerster is currently Lab Director at Bauhaus Earth and Associate Director at Buro Happold, Berlin. After studying Fine Art and Structural Design in Manchester, UK, he has worked successfully and repeatedly with a number of innovative architects (Kengo Kuma Architekten, Jürgen Mayer H, raumlabor, Henn Architekten, MagmaArchitecture, Peter Ackermann Architekten, Frei Otto, Studio Libeskind and others). \n \n\n \nAdvanceAEC  – Join this and further AdvanceAEC Partner Seminars and receive an AdvanceAEC certificate!This lecture is part of the AdvanceAEC partner seminar series. In 2023 eight partner seminars will take place. Partner seminars are focused on cross-sectional and interdisciplinary topics and are open to all network partners. If you attend at least six of the eight seminars, you will receive a certificate of attendance. You will need to register for this at the beginning of each event. The procedure for this will be briefly explained before each seminar.The access data for this event is available to AdvanceAEC members. All researchers working in the field of AdvanceAEC are welcome to join the network.
