Some really interesting thoughts on value in architecture (and other things) in this lecture by @PhinHarper Especially the bit on dépense - cultural activity that in capitalism is unproductive, has no value, but IMO is an essential part of architecture. vimeo.com/404613592

This is the text of Sarah’s brilliant and, I think, important @RIASmembership lecture covering the issues that face the profession.

Sarah's 2022 RIAS paper 'On Value and Values' now available to download from our website. Visit swarch.co.uk/about/publicat…

2. 1.5C is not a technical term but a construction of deep psychological meaning - a religious artifact (see my article on this twitter.com/RogerHallamCS2…).

1. 1.5C is not a point of data but a religious artifact. It is imbued with the sacred taboo of the global liberal class: the all pervasive dogma of progress, the unspeakable terror of regression and fall (a proxy for death). It can never be allowed to be passed.

Did you know today many Noongar people are mourning the anniversary of the Pinjarra massacre? Ask us why many in the community are so devastated and heartbroken that it feels like nothing has changed.

Promising another 1m houses, to be delivered by the for-profit sector under current construction codes is FKN insane! #Budget2023 #ClimateCrisis

In our latest paper we determine the 'absolute sustainability' of houses in Denmark and Australia We found Australian buildings exceed their allocated capacity by 700 - 36,000% (!!!) while Danish buildings exceed their allocated capacity by 200 – 3,700% sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Australia has built ~1m houses in the last 8yrs. Hardly any are affordable, sustainable or social. How’s this new housing accord going to change that? #Budget2023


In the midst of a #ClimateEmergency and #HousingCrisis, WA's Main Roads Department are proposing to demolish at least 23 houses for a road widening.

DEVASTATION The true extent of destruction proposed by Main Roads for its Charles St freeway project. This is the Vincent/Charles intersection N/S. Homes, parks, trees - all to go.

Judge people not by their opinions, but their ability to change them.


Watched this great report by @osamabinjavaid with our kids today. It’s hard, but essential viewing IMO.

“Humanity has been sent a memo by nature.” Al Jazeera’s @osamabinjavaid looks at the huge impact the “monsoon on steroids” has had on Pakistan, and why it’s a warning to the world ⤵️
