Awards recognise New Zealands women architects
Three architects have been acknowledged in the inaugural Architecture+Women:NZ Awards, a programme set up to celebrate the oft-overlooked contribution of women to the New Zealand building industry.
Wellington architect Cecile Bonnifait won the Wirihana Emerging Leadership Award, Australian-based New Zealand architectural researchers Justine Clark and Gill Matthewson won the Munro Diversity Award, and Auckland architect Julie Stout won the Chrystall Excellence Award.
The Awards are an initiative of Architecture+Women: NZ, a 500-strong organisation established in 2011 to raise the visibility of women in the architecture profession.
Women architects have struggled to achieve professional recognition, says A+W:NZ Awards organiser Megan Rule. It has been difficult for women to reconcile family commitments and career advancement within the traditional hierarchical structure of the architectural firm.
This means that women architects have often had unorthodox or interrupted careers, and their contributions have been insufficiently acknowledged.
Rule says the career progress of women is still a big challenge to the architecture profession.
Half of the graduates at New Zealands architecture schools are women, but very few of the large New Zealand architecture firms have any women partners. Establishing career paths for talented young women is one of the biggest challenges for architecture in New Zealand.
One of the main goals of Architecture + Women and progammes like the new A+W:NZ Awards is to achieve inclusive and equitable work environments.

Want to help kids get the support they need to succeed in school, ensure people can live healthy lives, and support individuals moving from financial crisis to stability? You can team up with the United Way of Douglas County to create long-term change to some of our communitys greatest challenges. See http://www.unitedwaydgco.org for more information or for volunteer opportunities.
Micki Chestnut is communications director for the United Way of Douglas County, which provides occasional features spotlighting local volunteers and charities supported by the United Way.
Alex Quinteros gawked at the huge drill with such eagerness, he looked like he might explode if he didnt get his hands on it in a matter of seconds. This inquisitive 10-year-old didnt have to wait long before Matthew McKillip, an associate with GouldEvans, handed him the bad boy power tool and let him drill the first painted wood slat on the side of the BrainFood Snack Shop. Quinteros was one the 14 children served by Family Promise of Lawrence, Lawrence Community Shelter and the Willow Domestic Violence Center who spend Saturday constructing two library boxes filled with free books for the community as part of the architectural firms 40th anniversary celebration.
Founded in Lawrence in 1974 by former University of Kansas School of Architecture classmates David C. Evans and Robert Gould, GouldEvans has grown to six studios across the nation. The firms recent work in Lawrence includes the Lawrence Public Library remodel, renovations at seven elementary schools and assisting with the design of Sports Pavilion Lawrence.
When contemplating how to commemorate their 40th birthday, the firms leaders decided that throwing themselves a big party didnt seem true to their mission of community service, shared Whitney Lang, GouldEVans architect and daughter of founder David Evans. Instead, the board challenged each studio to engage in a project that addressed homelessness.
Not sure where to start, Lang approached the United Way of Douglas County for help. Together, they developed the BrainFood Snack Shop project, through which the architects got to work one on one with homeless kids, serving as friends and mentors as they taught them new skills, exposed them to new career opportunities and inspired them to excel in school.
The book boxes unusual name comes from the United Ways ongoing BrainFood book drive, which collects childrens books to give to low-income elementary students in our community who participate in the Harvesters BackSnack program. Each Friday, when the students pick up food for the weekend, they also get to select a book of their own, thanks to the United Way BrainFood program.
During the BrainFood Shack Shop event, the elementary through middle school aged children engaged in a variety of fun hand-on activities, including building the BrainFood Snack Shops. On the way to install the first Snack Shop at the Family Promise Day House, the group stopped by the Lawrence Public Library for an insiders tour and to get books for the houses, a gift from the library.

Architects celebrate anniversary by investing in homeless kids
Monday, October 27, 2014
Architects design buildings for people to inhabit, forming a direct relationship with the city's population, culture and habits.
In any developing countries, where the demand for fundamental buildings and infrastructure is high, it usually gives rise to a boom in the industry, both mass market and institutional components.
However, as a city gradually transforms and matures, the industry will enter into a low-productivity and self-correcting period, giving rise to only minor developments and improvement projects.
As the situation stands, the nature of the life of an architect is no different to that of a nomad.
But architecture is a highly specialized and location- dependant profession. The limitations for architects entering into foreign markets are often unfair and harsh due to the protective policies imposed by the government, such as the registration of a license to practice, the taxation system and certain handicaps in competition.
Of course, there are advantages in exploring new markets to diversify risk. However, before embarking on such an endeavor, one must first understand some crucial steps.
Limitations: is the local government in favor of foreign professional practices, and what are the taxation, company registration/qualification prerequisites, and the architecture institute and open/invited competitions entry requirements?
Competitive edge: what is the core strength of a foreign architect over local competitors?
Opportunity: are there any secured potential clients, a sustainable project stream, whether with foreign or local clients?

Developer Russ Murfey, left, debates Mike Stepner with moderator Stephen Russell in between.
Five architects and a developer, colleagues all, duked it out Thursday in a make-believe Fight Club boxing ring, all to prove a point:
It's not all about design.
Sponsored by the alumni board of the NewSchool of Architecture and Design, the two-hour slugfest before an audience of nearly 150 students and professionals had veteran designers doff their traditional, good-guy personas and debate the pros and cons of the real world.
"What we really wanted to do was get the students out of the studio and expose them to a broad range of people in creative design industries," said Peter Soutowood, a NewSchool alum who oversaw "Alley Rounds" at the Space 4 Art gallery in East Village for the second time. "A lot of licensed architects would say that real design...is about 5 percent of the job and wish it was 95 percent."
The majority of the time involves working with clients and building officials, marketing for new business and managing the office.
The first round between NewSchool professors Robin Brisebois and Jeff Kennedy addressed the worth of an architect in improving the lives of people.
"It's all very self-centered to say it's all about us," Brisebois said, half tongue-in-cheek. "We simply are not in charge. We simply aid and abet the project of human habitation on the planet and serve other people who have other agendas than we architects do."
Kennedy, who specializes in sustainable design, replied, "We're not bad animals. We're good animals -- we just have bad habits. We need to change our habits and if I can give up carbs for a month, I think we can do this."
Round 2 pitted urban architect Frank Wolden against artist-architect James Enos.
