Site Visit
On May 14th 2010, AIASJ Launched their first Emerging Professionals site tour
. This program allows the Emerging Professionals to bring their mentors and tour a job site that is currently in construction and is designed by a local AIA Architect. Art Dyson, AIA had volunteered his time and took the Emerging Professionals and their mentors on a tour of the University High School which is located at the California State University of Fresno. The interns and their mentors had the opportunity to walk the site and see the campus in mid-construction. It enables the interns to ask questions and receive answers from either the Architect who designed the building and or their mentors. Don’t miss this great new event. If anyone else has a site they would like to see please e-mail Julie at juliej@dardenarchitects.com

AIA Competition: YAF/COD Temporary/Permanent Relief Housing
http://www.aia.org/practicing/groups/kc/AIAS075331
Submission Deadline: May 10, 2010 before 5pm Eastern Time
The AIA Young Architects Forum (YAF) and the AIA Committee on Design (COD) invite architects, students, and allied design professionals to submit sketches to the international 2010 YAF/COD Ideas Competition: Temporary/Permanent Relief Housing. In this year’s unique sketch competition, submitters are asked to explore the issue of temporary relief housing that could have a permanent function, through a concept design problem.
Submission
Entries will be submitted electronically through an online submission site. Submissions will consist of drawings and renderings presented in PDF format. All materials must be uploaded through the submission site before by 5pm ET on May 10, 2010. **The link for beginning a submission will be found here as of April 1, 2010 when the site goes live for submissions.
Download the 2010 Ideas Competition Call for Entries (PDF)
Challenge
Design temporary relief housing for refugees from natural or other disasters using sustainable strategies and following the Living Building Challenge. The proposed solutions should provide housing for approximately 500 displaced families as well as the necessary support services.
While successful site adaptability is a key goal and criterion for this Competition, the specific site to demonstrate the solution consists of approximately 200 acres. It includes the Astrodome and the surrounding parking lots. Entrants may include modifications to the structure of the Astrodome in their proposal, may allow the Astrodome to remain untouched and focus solely on the surface parking areas, or may have some combination of the two. Individual entries may focus their solutions on the provision of either temporary or permanent housing. Entrants are encouraged to address issues of uncertainty associated with either types of housing and with temporary solutions that become permanent.
Recognition
Winners will be announced and will have their work exhibited at the 2010 AIA National Convention in Miami June 10–12. Selected entries will be displayed on the AIA Web site.
