2018-04-17 NYCRUG - Architecture | Design | Data: Practice Competency in the Era of Computation
Channel: NYC Revit User Group
Date: 2018-04-19

Please join us at Hafele NYC for a timely discussion with Phil Bernstein, an architect, technologist, and educator.

"Technology Disruption" is the norm in all human endeavors, even in the oft stead realm of architectural practice. As the building industry faces The Second Digital Turn with the advent of next-generation computation, how will design methodology, practice, project delivery and the agency of the designer change in the systems in which buildings are created? This talk will define several technology trends likely to affect that future and speculate on the opportunities for new value propositions for architects in the future.

Learning Objectives:
(1) understand long term technology trends and their potential effects on practice;
(2) understand implications of technology on design methodologies;
(3) explore implications for the roles and responsibilities for architects;
(4) explore potential changes in delivery systems and value propositions for designers.

Speaker: Phil Bernstein is an architect, technologist and educator. He is currently Associate Dean and Lecturer at the Yale School of Architecture, where he has taught since 1988. He is a former vice president and now Fellow at Autodesk where his focus is on AEC technology strategy, and a former associate principal at Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects.

We are happy to be hosting this event with CTBUH New York Chapter.
