With a deft hand and inquisitive eye, Perkins Eastman Principal Frances Halsband creates bright and whimsical drawings to imagine all kinds of interactions between floor and ceiling. “Drawing inhabited spaces with people doing things is a way of engaging the viewer in the life of the place,” she says, “and a way for me to think about what is actually going to happen in each space.” In “Gallery: People, Places & Things,” a visual essay in the latest issue of our annual magazine #TheNarrative, we celebrate this body of work, including Halsband’s drawing of Friends Seminary in New York City that features a T-shirt sale in the lobby, dancers in a basement studio, students storing backpacks in lockers, and more. Check out the rest of Frances’ drawings here: https://lnkd.in/eVGAFy8M, and read the full magazine here: https://lnkd.in/eAA9Mz2A. #PerkinsEastman #HumanByDesign #Sketches #Design #Drawing #SectionDrawing #ArchitectureSketch #Architecture #Art

Perkins Eastman’s Design Strategy Team has won One Workplace’s 2024 ONEder Research Grant for its project, “SomePlace Like Home: Leveraging the Science of Hominess in Free-Address Environments.” Led by Charlotte Böhning, the research project is driven by critical questions about the impact of free-address and open-plan #office environments on employee #wellbeing and #workplace outcomes. By exploring these questions, the project aims to provide valuable insights and solutions to benefit the broader field of workplace design and free-address environments at large. The other project team members are Hanna Negami, Rebecca Milne, LEED GA (She/Her), Katherine Gluckselig, and Bob Condia, professor emeritus of architecture at Kansas State University. Learn more about the grant here: https://lnkd.in/g__N_xEt, and please join us in congratulating the team! #PerkinsEastman #HumanByDesign #ResearchGrant #WorkplaceDesign #FutureofWork #FreeAddress #Hominess #Productivity #HandsOn #OfficeDesign #Design #Architecture

Design competitions give firms a chance to make some noise, experiment, sharpen essential skills, and, in some cases, catapult them onto the #global stage. In “The R&D Dividend,” an article from the latest issue of our annual magazine #TheNarrative, we take a look at the art of the #designcompetition, and how these challenges can change the course of architecture and reimagine city skylines: Renzo Piano and Richard Rogers’ Centre Pompidou, Filippo Brunelleschi’s Duomo, and the Gustave Eiffel-led team’s Eiffel Tower are just a few examples. We also explore how several of Perkins Eastman’s prominent commissions were the result of design competitions (pictured is our competition-winning “Moonrise” scheme for Wuxi Symphony Hall in Wuxi, China), and how the competition format itself speaks to the firm’s culture of #innovation.

It’s no secret that every material selection for a project impacts people and the planet. With that in mind, Perkins Eastman is working to upend harmful and outdated practices. In “Healthier Materials, Healthier People,” an article from the latest issue of our annual magazine #TheNarrative, we dig deep into the firm’s own material research and selection processes to inform larger industry initiatives, and highlight the #PEople who are leading the way: Heather Jauregui, director of sustainability, Tanya Eagle, leader of sustainability standards, and Christine M. Vöhringeröhringer, a sustainability specialist, and Jane Hallinan, IIDA, LEED Green Associate, WELL AP, the interior design liaison for material health. “As architects and designers,” Heather says, “we have a lot of influence on both the health of the planet and the health and well-being of the occupants who are using our buildings and spaces.” Learn more about our efforts here: https://lnkd.in/efHf3KNG, and check out the full magazine here: https://lnkd.in/eAA9Mz2A. #PerkinsEastman #HumanByDesign #MaterialHealth #Wellbeing #Sustainability #SustainableDesign #Design #Architecture

BIG NEWS! Perkins Eastman is now a Just organization. After more than two years of hard work, we received the International Living Future Institute’s (ILFI) #JustLabel this month for our 17 US offices, which serves as a commitment to our policies of #socialjustice, #equity, #diversity, #inclusion, #health, benefits, compensation, and stewardship. Perkins Eastman is one of only eight firms with more than 500 employees to receive the label within the #AEC industry, and we’re among only 200 Just organizations of any size in the world. In our latest #Insights post, we take a look at what the designation truly means, how our HR, DE&I, and Sustainability teams worked with leadership on this effort (huge shout-out to Koray Aysin, Emily Castellano MBA, MSc, Juan Guarin, Salema Gumbs, Nick Leahy, AIA, LEED AP, Emily Pierson-Brown, and Danielle Tinghitella, PHR), and what it means for the firm moving forward.

Heather Jauregui and Sean O'Donnell FAIA LEED AP discuss the sustainable features of DC’s John Lewis Elementary School in the latest episode of Spectrum News’ “Exploring Your Health,” hosted by Erin Billups. The segment, “Curing Our Classrooms,” highlights the firm’s efforts to modernize DC schools, while highlighting John Lewis as just one example. “Every project strove to create a better, healthier, more sustainable learning environment,” says Sean, while Heather adds, “This school [John Lewis] has better air quality than almost any other school in the DC portfolio solely because we’re pumping more fresh air through it.” Watch the segment here: https://lnkd.in/eM9jf6bZ. #PerkinsEastman #HumanByDesign #WeAreWELL #SustainableDesign #Sustainability #EducationDesign #SchoolDesign #Design International WELL Building Institute (IWBI)
