Every month we like to choose a project to feature. This month, we’ve chosen Bloxham School, Stonehill House. ? Stonehill House was nominated for ‘Project of the Year’ at OxPropFest Awards 2023. ? The thriving independent coeducation school required a solution that would enable the school to achieve 40 boarding places, as well as a new common room and tutor room, to facilitate growth of the school. *Project challenge* ? There are challenges to overcome with every project, and that is what makes each one unique and interesting to work on. Those challenges are one of the reasons we chose Bloxham School as our Project of the Month. ? Key considerations: -????????Located in a conservation area -????????Grade II listed building -????????Limited vehicular access -????????Structural challenges -????????Proximity to residential properties ? Take a look at the journey and how the school achieved its vision: https://lnkd.in/eP75NzxE ? #featuredproject #planning #bloxham #oxfordshire #planningpermission #school #conservationarea #listedbuilding Image credit: Clews Architects and Andy Marshall, Fotofacade

Q: Hey Re:Vision, what are you doing for Earth Day? A: Hi! Thanks for asking! We’re celebrating the world’s FIRST Core Living Building Certified project at Muhlenberg College and we’re really excited about it! International Living Future Institute created the Core Living Building Certification using 10 non-negotiables from the Living Building Challenge as the baseline to make our communities good for everyone. We’re really proud of the work of the entire team on this project, which met certification requirements after demonstrating 12 months of energy and water use that were above requirements. ? We think Core Living Building certification is a game-changer for everyone who owns, designs, or constructs building projects. It’s a holistic look at what our building projects should be doing as an entry to regenerative practice, where our work can exist in balance – or as a benefit – to the natural, built, and social communities around it. ? Oh, and most of us biked, carpooled, took transit, or walked to work today. ? #AuthenticSustainability #CoreLivingBuildingCertified #EveryDayIsEarthDay #FirstInTheWorld Muhlenberg College The Whiting-Turner Contracting Company BSEG, LLC Thriven Design Keystone Consulting Engineers, Inc.

The future is now – Bold ideas for a better future. With the following quotes in mind, Prof. @Chris Knapp facilitated the last session of the day: “The best way to predict the future is to design it.” “Being less bad is still no good.” Seven presenters shared their one idea to make it happen: –?Jeremy McLeod (BREATHE ARCHITECTURE LIMITED) – Form follows finance. –?Daniel Fink (Republica) – The real salvation is going to come from the user. –?Murray Ellen (PT Blink) – Making homes attainable and affordable to young people. –?Tyler Pullen (Terner Labs) – More international study tours builds need and momentum. –?Giulia Scagliotti (Stanford University) – More collaboration between different stakeholders. –?Justine Prain (Energiesprong UK) – Build a transportable home so people and builders can touch and see what a comfortable home is like. –?Dr Sarah Breen Lovett (University of Newcastle) – Leverage the self-build of the construction industry. #BetterBuildingsFaster #MMC #ModernMethodsofConstruction #IndustrialisedConstruction #MakingItHappen

We have documented the construction of a wide range of education facilities, from primary schools to universities.?Our?systems capture the entire building process, recording the development of spaces where future generations will learn and grow. Each project, whether a primary school, middle school, high school, college, or university, is recorded in detail, showing the building's progress until it is a completed educational institution. The footage serves as a visual record of the work that goes into creating environments for education, highlighting the construction milestones that shape these vital community assets. Through time-lapse, the transformation of architectural designs into functional learning spaces is preserved, creating a lasting record of the development of educational infrastructure. #education #tes #schoolbuild #timelapse #timelapseUK #schoolconstruction

For this year’s final #BlackHistoryMonth community spotlight, KAI looks to the Arlington Grove Apartments project. Located in the City of St. Louis, this special project included the redevelopment of the William B. Ittner designed Arlington School, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Established under the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, the National Register of Historic Places, managed by the National Park Service, aims to facilitate public and private initiatives in identifying, assessing, and safeguarding America's historical and archaeological assets. KAI was chosen by the St. Louis Housing Authority to perform Design-Build services and transform the block into a $34 million, 162,000 square foot mixed-income and mixed-finance residential development that includes 112 units of apartments, townhouses, and semi-detached housing as well as a mixed-use building and renovated school. The 91 construction housing units included a heavy emphasis on sustainability that positively impacts both the residents and the community for years to come. The opportunity to help provide people in underserved areas with a meaningful place to live and a starting point for a better future is something on which we’ve built our legacy. Our mission of transforming communities is part of every project we take part in and is a mission we strive for with each step we take into the future.

"It sometimes seems as though the affordable-housing sector—which is presumably watching every dollar to scrimp or scrounge—regularly achieves standards of energy performance and livability that much of the market-driven sector barely aspires to." Our projects are manifestations of our belief that high quality design should be accessible to all and that health is a matter of equity. This educational article by Architectural Record covers three important affordable-housing projects, including our project Betances Residence.

MOD X is pleased to support the research and strategy efforts of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and its leadership to help define HUD's current and future role in offsite housing delivery and fostering growth and advancement of the U.S. Industrialized Construction (IC) sector via the development of a national innovation framework. We applaud HUD's willingness to embrace learnings from U.S. history, industry players, and international offsite best practices to inform a future generational federal action plan. Message from HUD PD&R Senior Leadership Factory Built Housing: A New Age of Experimentation Todd Richardson, General Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy Development and Research, U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development "From February 6 to February 8, I met with innovative housing thinkers from Scotland, England, Ireland, Japan, Sweden, and various U.S. cities; academics; and colleagues from the Federal Emergency Management Agency and our own HUD team to tour U.S. factories that are completely or partially manufacturing homes. This trip was organized by the National Institute for Building Sciences (NIBS) and the research collaborative MOD X under a grant from the Office of Policy Development and Research that included similar factory tours in Sweden, Japan, and the United Kingdom. The goal was simple: to better understand offsite (factory-built) housing construction, identify barriers to its wider use in the United States, and explore whether this construction method could solve the conundrum of providing more resilient and energy efficient rental and homeowner housing at a cost that is affordable to more people. In short, can building homes in factories lead to better, more rapidly delivered, and cheaper housing in the United States? The answer is not yet — at least, not at scale. If this brief factory tour and conversation with industry experts is representative, the United States may be starting a new wave of experimentation, this time being driven by builders themselves. The federal government has a role to play in bettering our odds of being able to change that answer to "yes." The role of National Institute of Building Sciences and MOD X is to recommend ways in which the federal government can further that goal." Richardson concludes, "What is the lowest-hanging fruit that would benefit from a federal government nudge? I am looking forward to upcoming recommendations from NIBS and MOD X." Ryan E.
