) includes a provision which denies a deduction to any publicly held corporation for compensation paid to any
covered employee
( defined as the ceo and the company ' s other four most highly compensated officers , as of the end of a taxable year ) to the extent that the compensation exceeds $ 1 , 000 , 000 in any taxable year of the corporation beginning after 1993 . compensation which is payable pursuant to written binding agreements entered into before february 18 , 1993 and compensation which constitutes
performance - based compensation
is excludable in applying the $ 1 , 000 , 000 limit . it is the company ' s policy to consider this code provision in determining compensation paid to its top executives , consistent with the company ' s compensation policies .
i was about to look for a non - technical job when another caltech graduate , john matthews , invited me to join newport research corporation ( now newport corporation ) . he had started newport a year earlier to provide laser equipment for research , equipment similar to what we had used in our graduate research . i jumped at the chance after he agreed to let me take on marketing and sales responsibilities . i took a one - third cut in salary and invested almost all of our small personal savings in the business . life was simple then . john and i loaded all our furniture and other belongings into one small , clunky , pickup truck , and with my wife holding our infant daughter in her arms , the four of us squeezed into the cab and were on our way to orange county where the company was located . i was happy as a clam !
drive hd ® wireless back up cam powered by look - it tm : developed in a strategic partnership with lightwave technologies , the drive hd wireless backup cam powered by look - it tm will change the way drivers park their vehicle and improve their safety . the combination of a 5 - minute installation , 4 - year replaceable battery , and no manipulation of the smartphone for viewing are an industry first .
the panel considers this mission statement to be appropriate . the office of microelectronics programs currently manages a broad portfolio of semiconductor metrology development projects in six nist measurements and standards laboratories : electronics and electrical engineering , manufacturing engineering , chemical science and technology , physics , materials science and engineering , and building and fire research . the office has successfully identified and funded key programs that can be appropriately and effectively supported by these nist laboratories . the relationship between the office and the semiconductor electronics division in eeel is particularly close , and together these units are leading the nist effort to meet the highest - priority measurement needs of the semiconductor manufacturing industry .
at a meeting held on june 23 , 2000 , the company ' s board of directors approved , and recommended for adoption by the stockholders , the methode electronics , inc . 2000 stock plan ( the
2000 stock plan
) . the effectiveness of the 2000 stock plan is contingent upon the spin - off of the company ' s stratos lightwave , inc . subsidiary . the purpose of the 2000 stock plan is to provide officers , directors and employees who have substantial responsibility for the direction and management of the company with an additional incentive to promote the success of the company ' s business , to encourage such persons to remain in the service of the company and to enable them to acquire proprietary interests in the company .
in fact , one of the problems with interesting investors in the field , he says , is the diversity of the applications that use lasers . “it makes it hard to understand , hard to validate the market size , ” he says . “it’s difficult to sell to people . ” today , lightwave is one of the companies most cited by investors and scientists as a success in making solid state lasers powered by diodes .

a pair of permanent magnets 18 and 19 are positioned overlaying the crystal 12 and are polarized to produce a strong component of uni - directional magnetic field h as of 5 kg , in the crystal 12 and parallel to the direction of the optical beam 14 for producing the faraday rotation effect in the crystal 12 . suitable magnets 18 and 19 are of nd : iron : boron composition , commercially available as type neigt no . 28 from i . g . technology corporation of volpariso , ind .
while newport was privately held , i participated in seeding a number of start - up companies as an angel investor , some on behalf of newport . none failed ! this was possible in part because the laser industry was young and consequently it was easy for an industry insider to create value . i understood the technology , had business insight and also the network to provide me the information i need to make good decisions . these companies included uniphase ( an oem laser company ipo and later ( jdsu ) , cyonics ( oem argon lasers , a sister company of uniphase ) , cyberoptics ( robotic vision systems , ipo ) , questek ( excimer lasers , acquired ) , rochester photonics ( digital optics , acquired ) laser power optics ( infrared optical components , ipo ) , and lightwave electronics ( argon lasers , acquired ) .
but despite success stories like epitaxx and lightwave , there have also been an abundance of failures . as olsen recalls the dozen or so laser diode companies that started about five years ago , he names four or five that either have gone bankrupt , are struggling to survive , or have been absorbed by their parent companies . “hardly a month goes by that one laser company doesn’t buy another ,
observes charles troy , managing editor of photonics spectra , a trade publication .
as more and more people are recognizing that optics clearly is the wave of the future , investment firms are hiring analysts who focus on optics , and some of the major aerospace and electronics firms that traditionally have eschewed optics have resurrected their research in the field . international business machines corp . is one of them , and even amoco corp . . a giant in the oil business , has entered the industry for the first time with a division founded in 1986 , called amoco laser co . in naperville , ill . “even the companies who always felt that electronics was going to do everything they needed in computing are now beginning to have a real interest in optics , ” says jim harris , a professor of electrical engineering at stanford university .
in order to effectively support office of microelectronics programs projects now within the semiconductor electronics division , resources have been diverted from efforts to secure funding from other government agencies . external funding for the division is at 2 percent of the total budget . nist - level management has stated that the goal is for the measurement and standards laboratories to have 20 percent on average of their budget provided by outside sources , and the semiconductor electronics division is planning to solicit more external funding . however the panel recommends that division management carefully monitor this process to ensure that the excellent progress occurring on existing programs is not slowed or diverted by this effort . any new external funding and added project milestones should align very closely with ongoing work in order to avoid resource dilution .
terizing the properties of fbgs are both very relevant for support of the developing lightwave component industry , and the panel commends the division for the importance and timeliness of these projects . the biannual symposium on optical fiber measurements , sponsored by nist in cooperation with the ieee lasers and electro - optics society and the optical society of america , continues to provide a forum for discussion of the latest research and serves as an excellent vehicle for communication of nist results and issues of concern to industry .
the semiconductor electronics division and the nist office of microelectronic programs have played a key role in the international semiconductor manufacturing technology consortium ( sematech ) and the semiconductor industry association ( sia ) metrology working groups that set the metrology requirements spelled out in the itrs . division staff continue to participate and take the lead in the industry standards committees that are focused on generating new and better measurement methods in critical areas . a good example of nist ' s role is this year ' s leadership of the jedec committee responsible for determining gate oxide reliability measurement . division staff are closely linked to the industry in other ways as well . a key staff member from the device technology group was on assignment at the semiconductor research corporation ( src ) for 2 years . he returned to nist in january 2000 , and his experience at src in cooperative work with university centers of excellence on metrology programs will be valuable to the division in setting program directions and executing projects .
submitted for the panel by its chair , ralph k . cavin iii , and its vice chair , lori s . nye , this assessment of the fiscal year 2000 activities of the electronics and electrical engineering laboratory is based on site visits by individual panel members , a formal meeting of the panel on february 17 - 18 , 2000 , in boulder , colorado , and documents provided by the laboratory .
many are watching with interest the developments at amoco laser co . , pleased to see that a giant u . s , corporation is entering the field . the feeling is that larger companies may be the ones that will have the staying power to compete with the japanese . “a lot [ also ] depends on the military , ” says troy of photonics spectra . “sdi was one of the great hopes of this industry : lasers in space , mirrors in space . . . if it goes away , then a ripple will be felt throughout the industry . ”
the enclosed proxy is solicited on behalf of the board of directors of methode electronics , inc . ( the
company
) , in connection with the annual meeting of stockholders to be held on september 12 , 2000 at 3 : 30 p . m . and any adjournment thereof ( the
annual meeting
) , at the doubletree o ' hare hotel , 5460 north river road , rosemont , illinois 60018 .
finally , the methode electronics , inc . 1997 stock plan ( the
1997 plan
) also provides long - term incentive to employees . the 1997 plan provides for the granting of awards of restricted stock , incentive stock options , nonqualified stock options and stock appreciation rights with respect to the class a common stock of the company . a committee composed of directors roberts and croft administers the 1997 plan and from time to time grants awards under the 1997 plan to selected eligible directors and employees . in general , awards under the 1997 plan for the fiscal year ended april 30 , 2000 were based on the company ' s pre - tax earnings . in addition , the awards for certain executives were increased to reflect their significant contribution to the success of the initial public offering of the company ' s stratos lightwave , inc . subsidiary . mr . mcginley received an option to purchase 52 , 985 shares of the company ' s class a common stock pursuant to the 1997 plan .
the panel is very impressed by the high quality of the technical work under way in the electronics and electrical engineering laboratory . the push to be the best in the world is appropriate and is being realized . the gold books listing eeel programs , activities , and accomplishments provide an excellent description of the laboratory ' s work for the panel and will be a useful tool for outreach to the scientific and industrial communities served by eeel .
not even been identified yet . there are other valuable activities under way ; staff are leading the institute of electrical and electronics engineers ( ieee ) committee that is working on identifying a standard for air interface for systems . the division ' s nonlinear device characterization project has produced a timely report on the passive intermodulation measurement results required by the wireless industry . additional efforts in this area will produce nonlinear device and component models to be used for the testbed .
the lasant crystal 12 is mounted to a major face of a thermally conductive block 25 , as of copper , via the intermediary of an optical u . v . curing cement . the block 25 is mounted to a major face of a heater 26 via the intermediary of a relatively thick layer 27 of relatively low melting point solder . a suitable solder is a thermally fusible alloy 52 % by weight indium and 48 % by weight tin having a melting point of 130° c . commercially available as indalloy # 1e from indium corporation of america , utica , n . y . in a typical example , the solder layer 27 has a thickness of 0 . 5 mm .
all of the projects supported and managed by the office of microelectronics programs are carried out in individual nist divisions and hence are reviewed by the assessment panels that visit each nist laboratory . however , the panel for the eeel viewed selected projects specifically from the perspective of the larger goals of the office . some of the projects are described in the review of the semiconductor electronics division earlier in this chapter . specific highlights of the office of microelectronics programs portfolio not mentioned in that section include the following :
the lasant crystal 12 is mounted to a major face of a thermally conductive block 25 , as of copper , via the intermediary of an optical u . v . curing cement . the block 25 is mounted to a major face of a heater 26 via the intermediary of a relatively thick layer 27 of relatively low melting point solder . a suitable solder is a thermally fusable alloy 52 % by weight indium and 48 % by weight tin , having a melting point of 130° c . , commercially available as indalloy no . 1e from indium corporation of america , utica , n . y . in a typical example , the solder layer 27 has a thickness of 0 . 5 mm .
involvement . the infrastructure for integrated electronic design project is encountering competing standards efforts for the definition of component information . the ability to translate between these competing standards has been demonstrated using xml , and it is important for nist to continue to accommodate all perspectives . the cooperative agreements with the silicon integration initiative for work on electronic component information exchange and with the institute of interconnecting and packaging electronic circuits ( ipc ) , as well as the substantial involvement in international electrotechnical commission ( iec ) technical committee 93 ( design automation ) , are an important part of the effort and help to ensure industry involvement . the division should consider entering into more agreements of this type ; work on standards such as vhdl , edif , and step could be very useful , and interactions with the associated standards organizations could be quite productive . in the infrastructure for integrated electronic manufacturing project , cooperative agreements with the national electronics manufacturing initiative and the ipc generic computer - aided manufacturing ( gencam ) project provide a good foundation for interactions with industry . also , the cooperative efforts with nist ' s information technology laboratory , manufacturing engineering laboratory , and manufacturing extension partnership extend the reach of the project . the open standards architecture approach is important because both interface and framework standards are needed to pave the way for commercial realization of electronic commerce for electronics manufacturing . nist ' s plans include development of a roadmap for standards development activities . the panel believes that if it is coordinated with companies throughout the u . s . electronics industry , the roadmap could be of significant value .
as illustrated in the schematical diagram of fig . 1 , a conventional solid - state laser system in this application includes a solid - state laser 10 and an integrated laser diode source 12 . such laser systems are well known and commercially available , for example , model 220 available from lightwave electronics , inc . of mountain view , calif . the solid - state laser 10 consists principally of a crystalline rod that has been doped with optically active ions to form an optically active lasing medium , for example , of nd : yag ( yttrium aluminum garnet doped with neodymium ) . mirrors at the two ends of the rod form an optical cavity , and when the lasing medium is optically pumped to a sufficient level the optical states are inverted and the medium lases if the cavity gain exceeds the cavity losses . one mirror is partially transmitting to extract a laser beam 14 from the rod . commercial high - power solid - state lasers such as the above cited model are optically pumped by an array of laser diodes in the laser diode source 12 which irradiate the side of the laser rod with optical energy having a wavelength shorter than that desired from the solid - state laser 10 .
the committee . the committee administering the 2000 stock plan ( the
committee
) would from time to time grant awards under the 2000 stock plan to selected eligible directors and employees of the company , its subsidiaries and affiliates ( the
participants
) . the committee shall be composed of two or more directors elected by the board of directors from time to time . in the absence of an election by the board , the committee shall mean the compensation committee of the board . members of the committee will be eligible to receive awards under the 2000 stock plan . presently , excluding employees of stratos lightwave , approximately 250 employees and 6 directors will be eligible to participate in the 2000 stock plan .
an example of the magnitude of the effect that the semiconductor electronics division ' s projects can have on industry can be seen in the now - concluding work on an igbt cad program in the device technology group . this program allows automatic extraction of key model parameters for power ics , and several companies have reported that this system greatly enhances their ability to optimize devices . an economic impact study of this project estimated that industry received $ 18 million in direct savings and $ 40 million in indirect savings , resulting in a benefit - to - cost ratio of 23 : 1 for the nist effort . 4
$ 58 million of direct and indirect benefits estimated to be due to the semiconductor electronics division ' s work on insulated gate bipolar transistor ( igbt ) modeling and characterization for power semiconductor devices . the value of the laboratory ' s measurement development work can be seen in the recent licensing of the energy - dispersive microcalorimeter x - ray detector from the electromagnetic technology division to two outside companies . this advanced method for materials detection and analysis should soon be available to and utilized by industry . many other projects make important contributions to eeel ' s support of u . s . industry ; examples are provided in the divisional assessments .
the effort on measurement and characterization techniques in support of the development of high - temperature superconductors for electronic applications remains a very important component of the nation ' s work on this still - emerging technology . the studies of superconducting transmission lines and related materials are well designed and could have a major impact on the field . it now appears that the first significant commercial application of these specialized types of electronics will come in the wireless communication industry , and nist is well positioned to facilitate and contribute to industry ' s development work in this area . the mems ion trap work is a nice extension of this group ' s device
the panel was impressed by the series of “gold books” put out by each division and office detailing its programs , activities , and accomplishments . these publications provide a concise , informative , and extraordinarily useful summary of the goals and achievements of ongoing laboratory projects . the documents were quite helpful to the panel in the course of this assessment and , when posted on the world wide web , will be an important cornerstone for laboratory outreach activities . already , eeel is increasing its use of the internet as a tool for information dissemination . for example , the semiconductor electronics division recently established a very good web site on hall measurement techniques and practices .
the national wireless electronics systems testbed ( n - west ) activity was formed to support and unify the broadband wireless communications industry , and the panel has observed significant accomplishments over the project ' s short lifetime . to enable effective measurement of the progress , however , its direction and goals should be more clearly defined . a major achievement of this activity has been to reduce to two the number of competing proposals for broadband wireless access standards . however , the panel is very concerned that there is no blueprint in place for construction of the testbed needed to evaluate the competing proposals . the budget , schedule , and resource requirements for the testbed have
ntt electronics , a leading supplier of coherent digital signal processor ( dsp ) solutions to system and module manufacturers worldwide , provides key components for 100g - and - beyond coherent transceivers . nel has commercialized its second - generation ( gen2 ) 20 - nm cmos exaspeed 100 ( low - power dsp ) and exaspeed ultra ( high - performance ) dsps , and micro - integrated intradyne coherent receiver ( μicr ) for cfp2 - aco solutions . newly unveiled gen3 16 - nm cmos exaspeed 200 ( lp - lite dsp ) achieves ultra - low power consumptions less than 0 . 1w / gbps for 200g / 100g dp - 16qam / qpsk solutions .
commends the semiconductor electronics division for its active and successful recruitment of senior technical specialists from industry and outstanding students from universities . however , the budget for the division is flat or declining , resulting this year in a reduction in force—since january 1999 , the number of technical professionals has dropped from 38 to 31 , a significant decline . at the same time , demand for the division ' s services , research , and participation in standards committees is accelerating , and the staff have responded with excellent productivity despite reduced resources . new methodologies for transferring tools and standards to industry have increased the impact of nist efforts and minimized the costs of ongoing support .
integrated circuits with copper interconnect are now being widely adopted . the advantage of copper over aluminum is that copper has higher bulk conductivity and lower bulk electromigration than aluminum ; the disadvantage is that copper exhibits surface electromigration while aluminum does not . in the past , the semiconductor electronics division played a key role in aluminum metallization reliability studies ; now the division must develop new industry standards for measurement structures and methods to allow thorough characterization of the bulk and surface electromigration properties of copper . the time frame in which industry needs these techniques is very short , and current staffing levels may be too low for nist to meet the demand on industry ' s schedule .
the semiconductor electronics division has been very effective at leveraging its scarce resources by partnering with other organizations within nist , at other government laboratories , and in industry . there are successful collaborations with other nist laboratories , and the panel emphasizes that the strong relationships between the semiconductor electronics division and the office of microelectronics programs allows nist to work effectively with industry to develop the required technology base and measurement infrastructure for semiconductor design , manufacturing , and use . the division has successfully utilized the processing and measurement capabilities at other national laboratories and in industry to compensate at least partly for nist ' s aging infrastructure and thus enable nist staff to continue to execute the division mission satisfactorily . the clean room and other facilities planned for the new advanced measurement laboratory are essential for nist to be able to support the exacting future metrology needs that have been identified by and for the semiconductor industry . the new building presents the division with an opportunity to add important new state - of - the - art processing capabilities as well as needed state - of - the - art measurement tools , both inside and outside the clean room area . additional increases in operating budget will be required to provide the personnel and service contracts necessary to keep the new facility and its equipment operational . resource and support benchmarks with similar industry facilities have to be completed to verify that the planned staffing and support needs are adequate .
with short pulses ( 3 to 10 ns , some lasers lose pulse energy because lower level laser energy bottlenecks leave unused population in the upper level . this is discussed by t . y . fan in
effects of finite lower level lifetime on q - switched lasers , ieee journal of quantum electronics vol . 24 no . 12 pp . 45 - 48 ( dec . 1988 ) . in nd : ylf lasers , particularly under some conditions , this lower - level effect causes small after - pulses . after - pulses may be avoided by applying rf drive to the q - switch before the second pulses have time to arise , theoretically resulting in little or no change in the laser power .
the panel considers this mission statement to be appropriate and notes that the division ' s programs are in conformance with the eeel and nist missions . through its involvement with industry , mainstream roadmapping activities , and associated working groups , the semiconductor electronics division has successfully identified the needs of the semiconductor industry to which the unique capabilities of nist can be applied most effectively . the mission statement includes appropriate support for critical semiconductor needs outside the international technology roadmap for semiconductors ( itrs ) , 2 originally the national technology roadmap for semiconductors . the division serves as a leader for industry and is therefore required to be proactive in the development of state - of - the - art measurements to meet future industry needs .
adjustments for changes in capitalization ; change in control . the committee shall have the authority to make appropriate adjustments to the maximum number of shares of class a common stock that could be delivered under the 2000 stock plan and to outstanding awards to reflect stock dividends , stock splits , and similar changes in capitalization . however , no adjustment will be made in the event of a stratos lightwave spin - off . the 2000 stock plan provides that if in the year following a change of control , as defined in the 2000 stock plan , a participant was terminated without cause or resigns for reasons relating to relocation or decreased responsibilities or compensation , all nsos , isos and sars would vest and all restrictions on restricted stock would lapse . in the event of an extraordinary corporate transaction such as a merger , the committee could provide for a cash payment or substitute award to be delivered to participants in exchange for their outstanding awards .
such breakthroughs have also led to the birth of a new branch of optical science called electro - optics , or photonics . the marriage of light with electronics , its most visible offspring has been the laser diode—the tiny chip at the heart of oompact disc players , laser printers , point - of - sale scanners , and other products . it took almost 20 years before engineers could make lasers practical for consumer products , partly because they were handmade and required cumbersome and inefficient flash lamps to stimulate the atoms . but now , with the advent of the laser diode and other developments in fiber optics , the technology has matured and is responsible for much of the explosive growth in optics in the past five or six years .
furukawa electric ( tse ; 5801 , isin ; jp3827200001 ) group started business in 1884 , when its copper - smelting facility and wire manufacturing factory was established . since then furukawa electric has become pioneers in the latest technologies by addressing diverse technological issues . furukawa electric has released products in a number of areas , including telecommunications , electronics , automobiles , and construction , with the three types of materials it works with at their core , namely , optics , plastics , and metals . many of these products have attained the top global market share , and all of its products have contributed to society in numerous business areas . furukawa electric reported consolidated revenues of jpy 874 . 9 billion ( approximately usd 8 . 0b ) for the fiscal year ended march 31 , 2016 .
the specific focus of nist work is the delivery of electronic component information for the design of electronic subsystems and printed circuit assemblies . currently , much of the accumulated data is on the information needed to select components ; the panel believes that future efforts should be expanded to include the information needed to analyze designs that incorporate the components . the use of extensible markup language ( xml ) to define the interchange of information ensures that table - based information can be exchanged easily . this effort should be extended to make it possible for other standards - based information to be included as a named ( including standard and version ) subelement of the information definition . possible types of information include electronic design interchange format ( edif ) schematics , three - dimensional standards for the exchange of product model data ( step ) descriptions , and very - high - speed integrated - circuit hardware description language ( vhdl ) behavioral descriptions . the division ' s work is fairly narrowly focused , and the panel recognizes that this approach is necessary to give the project a realistic chance for success . however , many electronics testing needs may be accommodated by the same information used in the design analysis stage . since testing is a key issue in electronics product development , it might be appropriate to extend the perspective of the nist work . the program now includes investigation of information and activity models for manufacturing electronic commerce , and the panel commends the staff for capitalizing on existing models rather than investing crucial resources in developing new models . this approach could be expanded to include additional industrial models .

since 2011 , we are working in amsterdam , europe , like many chinese cities , they are also developing a central business district ( cbd ) . many people think that the cbd is the modern representation of a city , people enjoy the idea of having many high towers , but actually i have been there , the environment is as a matter of fact very cruel , not humane enough , however , the local government respects the architects very much , and each building is designed by famous architects , including toyo ito , som , unstudio , and they even name the building after the architect , for example , there is an toyo ito tower , which shows great respect towards the architect , but those architects do not have any real voice in the city planning , they are strictly restricted by all those data . so in the end , some architects refuse being named .
underground tunnels have been found below the centre of johannesburg’s cbd and could become trendy , well - lit walkways , complete with coffee shops and real parks .
as with many of the other mature neighbourhoods near to the brisbane cbd you will find that there is a base of reasonably uniform houses of a certain age .
let’s party . occasionally , cbd lends our hand to special events that we just need to take part or share a similar mission . cbd can offer expertise in planning an occasion’s overall aesthetic so that upon attendance , guests instantly absorb the event’s purpose and vibe from the lighting , furniture , flowers , music , and theme .
when you are seeking the right teneriffe architects to visualise your future home speak to award winning loucas zahos for the best in what brisbane has to offer .
cbd is deeply motivated by a broad range of design challenges and dreams ; ultimately resulting in a tailor - made , functional , and unique space for every client .
mad architects is a beijing - based studio headed by chinese architect ma yansong . the firm was founded in 2004 and has since opened an office in los angeles .
it all starts with a plan , and it’s cbd’s goal to get in on it early . cbd has founded strong relationships with both local and nationwide architecture firms , all in an effort to learn and truly be a part of the build . we’re here to offer an initial introduction to the right architect for your project or consult as a liaison between you and your builder .
if you have a project in mind that required expert teneriffe architects and building design knowledge , you really need to be working with a firm that is intimately familiar with the market .
pdt architects have successfully delivered imaginative , intelligent and client focused design solutions for more than 80 years . this has resulted in the delivery of some of queensland’s most loved and iconic landmarks .
ray harli and yonah odendal , from urbansoup architects and urban designers , have great plans for the tunnels . they specialise in transport - related architecture and focus on inner - city regeneration .
presently , with all of our client partnerships – residential , commercial , or creative consultation – ensuring that you instantly feel welcome , at ease , and inspired in your space , is cbd’s premier focus .
jasmax - hugh broughton architects have been appointed the specialist architecture team for the redevelopment of antarctica nz ' s scott base . a challenge in designing for one of the world ' s most extreme environments .
whether you wish to start anew with an empty lot or to update an established structure loucas zahos’ teneriffe architects have many years in the business creating imaginative new forms and refurbishing old structure to generate unique and exciting residential designs .
sva international developed a robust urban design framework for the envisaged belhar cbd development . the parcels of land on the western side of symphony way were earmarked for the second and future phases of development in this incremental urban design and architecture appointment .
mini living – invert is a design exhibition created in response to a brief for a residence on a unique 6 m x 10 m site in melbourne ‘s cbd . fourteen architects have responded enthusiastically and their designs and 3d models will be exhibited on the site from october 4th - 8th 2017 . additionally , the brief has been incorporated into the course for rmit university ‘s master of architecture studio students . the space will be re - imagined as a home suitable for a young family of four . given the unique spatial characteristics of the location , the architects must consider construction logistics in their designs . most important for the harmony of an inner - city home , their designs must also include some kind of garden vegetation .
past director david matthews came in for a chat a month ago to talk to us about his time at pdt architects . he was a part of the team from 8th february 1972 until 3rd july 2009 and has some great stories to tell .
won as a result of a limited design excellence competition , this project explores the redevelopment of the disused , heritage - listed 1920s scots church in the sydney cbd , a stratum containing the original church auditorium of 2500 seats will be retained by the church and restored .
bring on the build . it can be scary and we know it . cbd can ease your apprehension as construction commences . let us review the plan with contractors , keep watch on the timeline , and serve as the first point of contact as your build takes off .
fresh eyes on your own furnishings can feel like a whole new space . by mixing touches of old favorites with shiny new treasures , rearranging existing furniture , or even bringing the outdoors in , cbd can help transform your present space without losing touch of your existing style and individual personality .
you might say we are obsessed with lighting – and yes , that’s truly a fair statement . often unintentionally overlooked , lighting is crucial to getting it all right . cbd is committed to finding the ideal warmth by first drawing a lighting scheme that makes sense and highlights the best facets of your floorplan .
the pair of architects believe the tunnels could contribute to the urban regeneration and “stitching” together of city buildings and transport nodes of the new kazerne and park stations , as well as people who use the nearby noord street taxi facility . the tunnels would also become a new public space , said harli .
we stand by making first impressions count . and just like the interior , it starts with a mutual vision . cbd will consult to create an exterior design plan that tackles potential build additions , landscaping , door and hardware selections , finishes , lighting , or even offer the simplest , but instantly notable , facelift .
cbd believes craftsmanship and timelessness are key to good design . if you can get those fundamentals plus originality , now that’s real good . we’ve partnered with artisans whose skill set ranges from furniture construction to sculpture , and can offer solutions to the most daunting spacial challenge or just simply build a one - of - a - kind piece .
one of the most important aspects of architecture and building design is the conservation and restoration of historic land and buildings . to properly care for queensland properties and to create designs that resonate with the local history and culture you need to employ teneriffe architects like loucas zahos , who have years of experience in the market and have mastered the planning regime .
‘this is one of our latest projects ; located in guiyang . it again has mountains , water , though artificially made , but giving people a feeling of a layered environment . it is a new town , a new cbd , with new high - rises , even new twin towers , for the client likes the twin towers in kuala lumpur , so he has to have it .
how can we make a dent in solving the new zealand housing crisis ? principal james whetter summarises the key actionable items discussed at an expert panel of housing strategists , architects and urban designers . housing models , funding structures , density done well , bipartisan political agreement around a long term housing strategy . it ' s all documented , but how do we get traction ?
for the second consecutive year designboom hosted an architectural conversation during the 2012 beijing design week entitled ‘future cities’ held at ucca ( ullens center for contemporary art ) in beijing , china . the speakers for the event included ma yansong ( mad architects ) , birgit lohmann ( designboom ) , minsuk cho ( mass studies ) , wang hui ( urbanus ) and ole bouman ( nai ) .
with the champagne no longer flowing and the celebrations winding down , the time has come to seriously consider auckland’s prospects as the host city of the next america’s cup . what needs to be done to its design to ensure the cbd is an exciting , innovative space for visitors to flock to from the world over ? we reached out to several architecture and design firms to see if they had any ideas up their sleeve .
we want to bring our emotional america’s cup win into a personal , more connected experience , reclaiming auckland’s waterfront for the people . context architects proposes a modular pontoon system that connects to bike paths and walking trails around the city , and on and off the water . tap on with your hop card and extend your journey by jumping on a water pedal bike , ferry , city bike or water taxi .
the design is located at the outskirt of this cbd district , next to the highway . the clients are two sisters who took over their fathers company . they find the normal city masculine with grids and squares which they think belongs to their father’s generation . they now wanted to turn the last generation’s legacy into something different , something natural . since holland has more grids than natural landscapes ; we proposed to make a series of mountains .
the chosen models and designs will feature in mini living – invert ‘s one - week exhibition , alongside a series of talks hosted inside the on - site greenhouse in october . the models will be suspended inside a glasshouse , next to a botanical display by loose leaf . on october 5th and 6th , the architects will share the inspiration behind their designs . these free talks will be held on site , bookings are now open for the limited seats . videos of the talks will be posted after the event . meanwhile , the rmit master of architecture studio students have commenced work on their models .
if anyone of you in the audience today has grown up in beijing , you can recall that your social , academic and your daily life , including entertainment , are all in this very comfortable environment . today’s city is like this , for example chongqing , which is just a representative of typical chinese cities . just now i mentioned the cbd areas , and these cities are actually continuing the trend of manhattan and chicago , building high - rises . manhattan has central park , even if some of the chinese cities have so - called central parks , they cannot excel the existing mode which has already been there for many years .
what is obvious to me is that we need to complete the continuity of waterfront , particularly across the part east of queen st , i . e . where the britomart could extend to the water . the ‘queen st valley’ is defined by symonds st ridge to the east and hobson to the west . this natural landform defines and cradles the cbd well . so , i don’t see the need to extend access to the waterfront too far to the east . just to britomart pl would be fine where the symonds st ridge ends . right now , the furthest east you can get to the water is queens wharf . this leaves the britomart and the vibrant areas around fort , shortland and high streets orphaned from the waterfront . madness .
we think this kind of cbd has nothing to do with humanity , it has no public space for people , without bridges , platforms or waters , without spaces people can see each other and can gather around . my idea is to insert communication spots based on the landscape and weave together these individual parts , architecture and nature in this large - scale mixed - use building . whatever it is , people hesitate to adopt this networking system in the large buildings , they hate large buildings , for they think this kind of buildings are not humane and represent only some authorities , but in terms of sharing , openness and density , the city is the better choice and high - density is unavoidable , it is here that my thinking brings us to this idea of the ‘shan - shui city’ . ’ – ma yansong
she attributes her innate ability to mix patterns and hues to her love for travel , art , fashion , and music . ultimately , the path to interior design became inevitable as cortney realized she could blend these passions , first with a partner in 2002 , and eventually to founding her own interior design firm in 2007 . specializing in custom residential builds , cortney has grown her business by collaborating with homeowners , architects , and contractors to create a robust portfolio of diverse , inspiring homes – each reflective of a client’s lifestyle and personality . cortney has also earned success in multi - family communities as well as in the commercial realm – most recently with hotel , restaurant , and storefront projects . likewise , cortney’s passion for design has evolved into the development of her own custom furniture in addition to plans for a textile line in the near future .
australian based green magazine is thrilled to observe the talent of these emerging architects , one of whom will have their work shown at the mini living – invert site , the rest will be on exhibition at rmit’s design hub from october 4th–8th . ian nazareth , associate lecturer of architecture and urban design at rmit reflected on the project : ‘ mini living – invert is an opportunity to interrogate the discourse of small scale living in dense inner urban conditions . it engages with broader issues around the sustainability , adaptability and vitality of the home – these are all critical concerns in the context of the contemporary city . our interest in the project is to also explore the spatial , cultural and urban identity of residential architectural projects that recognizes the domestic as a piece of city - making . between established design practices and architecture students , mini living – invert is a unique platform and forum for the exchange of ideas through design propositions that speculate about an imminent future , revisiting every aspect of the domestic environment in order to point to a possible , counterfactual city . ’

in the america’s cup just been , experts estimate the tiny island of bermuda forked out around $ 77 million to get its surroundings up to standard for such an event .
a similar investment into auckland’s infrastructure and urban design will need to be made , should it host the next cup ( and most are certain it will ) , but both the government and auckland council have been frank about the high costs involved with putting on such an event .
ateed estimates changes such as extending halsey st wharf could cost between $ 80 to $ 100 million , but with sir ralph norris estimating the economic benefits could exceed $ 1 billion , it’s likely the powers that be will dig into their pockets and find a way to fund it .
this means the prospect of another cup being hosted here creates the opportunity for forward - thinking design minds to pitch some concepts that will help the city’s urban regeneration as a whole – as well as any blue - sky ideas that might not usually get as much traction .
the viaduct basin is already a glittering feature of auckland city and has come a long way since the last cup was hosted there in 2003 . it’s now home to a bustling food and beverage scene along the viaduct and in wynyard quarter , as well as various hotels , apartments and businesses , while silo park is a spot often frequented for events .
it’s a strong foundation to build from , but there’s always room for improvement .
here ' s several architectural and design firms ' takes on what should be done to auckland’s waterfront to make it a more exciting , dynamic place .
context recommends moving ferry terminals to the end of each existing wharf , to increase ferry reach and bring more people friendly space to the water precinct . syndicates village will be placed to the western edge of the tank farm , increasing public engagement . with a new canal link through to westhaven marina , auckland can establish art walks , café and bar crawls and family trails which will operate day and night for the america’s cup celebration in 2021 .
ultimately , we’re enhancing the experience of our city’s waterfront through innovation , and connection : enabling hands on creation of your own experience . prioritising pedal power and pedestrian activity . a waterfront spin serves our city for 2021 and beyond , creating fun , dynamic , people - focused spaces .
imagine a one kilometre long , north facing new linear waterside park stretching from under the harbour bridge eastward toward the entrance to the westhaven marina . the royal nz yacht squadron would become the gatehouse to a new linear park , anchoring a promenade , an america’s cup base and new zealand’s yachting history into the home of the america’s cup . 40 , 000 people could stretch across the waterfront promenade to farewell and welcome the racing yachts as they set off and return on each race day . the south side of the new peninsula would accommodate the team sheds and shore crew facilities , while the north face of these sheds would offer cafes , bars , hospitality venues and retail outlets during the tournament . the yachts would be safely moored in behind with easy access the open harbour .
beyond the america’s cup life cycle , the park will become unique in auckland as a north facing , harbour edge , linear public space and promenade that would be used every day as a recreational space , but also offering viewing for regular harbour racing located at finish line of the harbour bridge . the sheds would be replaced with any variety of possibilities : clubhouses , cafes , venues , restaurants , yachting supply retailers even a yachting museum . the park would be a stopping point for the new sky path cycle way , an urban beach , an event grandstand , an exercising strip , a destination dining experience - a kind of auckland marine version of the nyc high line .
the current waterfront threshold is very abrupt , and although we live and interact on the sea’s doorstep , we are out of sync and separated from its power , rhythm and motion . with an event like the america’s cup on the horizon , it would be great to have public / urban architecture that references the ocean . architecture along the auckland waterfront threshold has the ability to embody organic periodicity and acknowledge the presence of the natural world within our built environment .
tai whakaruru aims to activate this edge of the city by creating a tangible connection and embodiment of tidal activity within the urban realm . the tidal canopy manipulates the way people can move and inhabit the urban fringe . at low tide , the thoroughfare is open and transparent , whereas at high tide the shelter is a channelled and a fast moving space . the movement is pure and organic - all driven by tidal buoys under the wharf . the series of fern - like structures inhabit a wharf stretch of the auckland waterfront , potentially in the new wynyard development area . the whalebone - esque structure mimics an uncurling fern or sail . the glass and timber panels also draw inspiration from maori fretwork designs . tai whakaruru aims to challenge the thinking of architecture along the tidal threshold and generate more awareness of organic periodicity within the built environment . this would be an exciting and engaging addition to the waterfront , especially with an ocean orientated event like the americas cup . to our knowledge , nothing like this has been done before .
auckland is hosting the americas cup in 2021 , and it is significant events like this that propel change . the original america cup defence in auckland in 2000 was one such propelling moment , which set the momentum for the development of the viaduct basin . further partnerships between the public and private sector have also given us the enormously successful britomart precinct and wynyard quarter . it’s amazing that in the space of less than 20 years , auckland’s gone from the colonial queen st ‘dragstrip to the hinterland’ to a near continuous waterfront promenade .
the part of auckland that generates serious passion and debate is the ports , and they have to play a part in this . my view as i sit in our offices in the old northern steamship building is that the mercantile shipping history of auckland’s waterfront is important and so i’m happy to see the ports stay where they are , for now , but not unchanged . when we have four million here , that might be the right time for a wholesale departure .
and this is so very easily fixed – auckland council can do this . it enrages me to see week after week , captain cook and marsden wharves being put to the what can only be described as demeaning use for unloading , storage and distribution of cars . auckland council , who we are reminded is the 100 percent owner of the ports of auckland , could tell the ports to release this area to the public . what do they do with the cars ? build a low - rise carpark building further east , somewhere around the cement silos they recently constructed . why don’t they do it ? because it’s cheaper to use two old wharves . this kind of lasse faire economic argument doesn’t wash in the modern city , and it’s even more deeply offensive when the elected council owns the asset .
so , just get those damn cars out of it . give us captain cook and marsden , then let the americas cup propel their development . i’d like to see the cup bases on these wharves , right in town , then later , a saltwater swimming pool . it’s about the waterfront , stupid .
the team of spaceworks believe the america’s cup is about celebrating four pillars of what new zealand is known for : water , food , wine and natural beauty .
1 . to celebrate water and to amplify our city of sails slogan of the past , we would build floating grandstands on the water and built in sail screens to project the racing . we also think the sunken stadium should be brought back . however , we’d need to start building now , for it to be ready in four years .
2 . along the waterfront , we would create a nature trail that would make visitors feel like they’re in the native forest by the sea . all along , our famous photographers and artists would have the opportunity to project their own rendition of the america’s cup up on sails along the walkway . this will take visitors along a journey and immerse them in new zealand life .
3 . along the waterfront and nature walkway will be two and three - storey bars and restaurants ( pop - ups ) , celebrating our famous chefs and wine regions and which can double as stadiums . like a wine tour , this will be where visitors can eat , drink and watch the race .
4 . convert jucy campervans into minivans and transport visitors around the waterfront and back into the city .
5 . create an oversized artwork by installing a sail that visitors from all over the world can write and draw on . this will be our keepsake and could be installed as a permanent artwork after the event .

it ' s good for business , us and the environment . so how can we make auckland more pedestrian - friendly ?
the new development utilises original support structure and references the neo - gothic massing of the original design , abandoned in the great depression . to achieve a maximum number of high - quality apartments , a system of two - level units was developed with corridors and lift access at every second floor . the whole building is within a 45° sloping height - limit plane , which preserves solar access to wynyard park south of the site .
the elevation created by the sequence of double - storey apartment boxes continues the proportions of the perpendicular gothic facade below , emphasising its verticality and creating a dynamic silhouette . evocative roof forms are developed as a series of sky follies leaning over each of the rectilinear towers , with the northernmost looking towards the harbour . the double storey facade spaces enhance views to the sky and the city . integrating natural ventilation , openable sliding doors and shading elements , the attached wintergardens function as an acoustic buffer and a passive solar system to allow daylight to penetrate deep into the apartments .
the new towers use sandstone colours to connect to the restored stone base , as well as expanses of seamed zinc and brilliant glazing . the interplay of solid and light , zinc and glazing combined with the irregular rhythm of coloured glazing panels , blinds and shutters , creates an elevation that reflects the vitality of the urban setting .

from his presentation we picked mad’s projects that investigate on artificial nature , not in terms of a conflicting idea but with the aim of combining ‘nature’ and high - density structures .
shan - shui city is one of the unique spatial planning concepts in the china’s history , with implications on urban sustainability . it combines the urban construction and the natural environment which is mainly composed of the mountains ( shan ) and the water ( shui ) . the tight integration of architecture - landscape - city is the core of the traditional chinese city design theory and methodology ( if there is any… ) .
this ‘spiritual nature of chineseness’ reflects the appreciation of nature , not as a romantic , environmental or anthropomorphic device , but as a symbolic abstraction of reality — the instinctive properties of place and nature .
’emotion in architecture is fundamentally important . how do you touch people’s minds ? ’ , mad is in tune with the chinese tradition reflected in huang tingjian’s poem on the pavilion of rustling pine trees — architecture is not important , the pine trees are not important , but the emotional serenity engendered by both is what’s important . ’ ma yansong
beijing is beautiful not just because of the trees , she has views , like jingshan , beihai ; a garden can be culture asset because it embeds spiritual elements in it . since we can have small - scaled objects involving emotional elements , from a plant to a city , why cannot the larger - scaled ? the dense cites ? this is the key problem today . ’– ma yansong
the concept i am going to talk about is called ‘shan - shui city’ , ( the city of mountains and waters ) which i will talk about for the first time today .
this image is always in front of my desk , it is done by mr . cai guoqiang in 1996 when the twin towers were still standing , it is a firework show in front of manhattan , through this image , the mighty city’s image is being questioned , that is to say , what will our future city look like ? in one of our published works , we are comparing the high - density city with nature , this comparison is very intense , as mr . wang mentioned , we should put the nature into the city , and we are also thinking how to solve the conflicting positions between the two . we are also thinking how to solve the conflicting positions between the two , so we present this ‘the city of mountains and waters’ concept .
this is my graduation design from 2002 . it was when the twin towers fell down , and each student had to present a proposal . my proposal is ‘floating park’ , underneath is square land and square towers , what i did is a completely free landscape design . whether it be ‘floating architecture’ or ‘floating city’ , it does not matter , since it is not for practical purposes , and i was just a student then , but looking back , it means a lot to me .
later i competed in another competition , set also in north america and among similar capital skyscrapers , but we decided to do something natural and soft , each level with balconies . here we are trying to get rid of the monumental image of a normal skyscraper .
this is the local kids’ drawing , which you can see are very vivid and low - profiled , with two different towers , unlike the usual twin towers with the second only copying the first .
in this urban complex there are offices , residences , a hotel , and the focus of the design is a valley - like urban space , which forms this contrast with the outside grid . each unit is different , with normal green gardens and terraces formed organically into the design , and we have a real mountain with a waterfall .
we have done many different ‘mountains’ , the image i showed just now is the scenery in beihai , guangxi . we did a residence project there next to the ocean ; it is a massive size with 800m length and 100 height , which can be a small –scaled city . the roof can be used for mountain climbing and it also has swimming pools , which resembles a real city . the roof can be used as mountain climbing and it also has swimming pools , which resembles a real city . just now i showed the image of le corbusier - designed bowl tower , which reappeared in china , korea . this is also a reference to it but with the urban image changed .
this is another project in the rural area in huangshan district with beautiful scenery . just as the previous speakers mentioned , there are projects in the city , in the rural areas , and in the natural scenes , however , in front of this beautiful natural scenery , you feel guilty doing any design . and in this case , the small - scaled city needs to be built so that the flow of people in the big city can be diverted .
this whole area is going to be residences , thus the problem lies not on whether to build it , but how it looks as a part of the protected landscape . we have a very simple idea to let the architecture grow out of the contour line , out of the original mountain to form the new residence space . no floor plan is the same due to the fact that the land is very complicated , and is formed by different planes , with bridges connecting them , and underneath there is tea garden , so the architecture feels like the extension of the mountains . the architecture does not have a fixed image , each level plan is different .
this is one of the buildings ; it looks like a pavilion , but is actually the top of a building , you can arrive from another mountaintop and then take the elevator downstairs . with this large - scaled projects going on , we realize how it will affect on the natural environment , compared with small - scaled projects which would not do much harm to the environment ; large - scaled project cannot escape the question of ‘how it looks ? ’ , at the same time , people’s feelings are more highlighted in this kind of project . and today i actually concentrate on the large - scaled projects .
this is a contrast between western an eastern landscape concepts . the left ( gardens of versailles ) is from france which represents a nature that can be sculptured from human hands , however in the east , the idea of architecture is very vague , because it has landscape elements involved , which means the natural elements , like stone and water , are wholly merged with the artificial and as a matter of fact , even these natural elements are artificial themselves .
another project of ours in the west lies in rome , which i find a museum - like city . we are doing a renovation project near the city center ; you can see that the street in the west is quite important , so are the building elevations , which form the streetscape . these classic buildings have stone walls to shoulder weight ; this is the one we are working on .
