Three students from Waterloo Architecture recently attended the Smart Geometry conference in London. The conference began 10 years ago to celebrate and encourage the use of computational design tools in the field of architecture. This short video serves as a visual overview of these new tools being developed by the architectural community - as well as showcasing some of the London buildings who have benefited from such ‘smart geometries’.

Connor O'Grady will defend his thesis entitled "Liminal Matter: Diffuse, Adaptive Environments for a Future Dundas Square" on Friday January 16th, 2015 at BRIDGE Pop-Up located at 60 Main St. The design explores the capacity for an embedded, public, and adaptive architectural system to expose the liminal, “invisible” relations that affect the collective environment.
Jenny Sabin visited Waterloo Architecture last week to lead a workshop entitled Matrix Architecture: Modeling Biological Reciprocity – A Landscape Takes Shape. The workshop was conducted as a two-day seminar and hands-on lab which explored the potentials of integrating biological phenomena into architecture and design practices.
Once again, students at Waterloo Architecture have contributed intriguing and innovative projects to this years ScotiaBank Nuit Blanche. At its core, Nuit Blanche is a 12-hour event with a mandate to make contemporary art accessible to large audiences, while inspiring dialogue and engaging the public to examine its significance and impact on public space.
