Tracey Winton receives SSHRC grant

The Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) has awarded Tracey Winton a three year Research-Creation grant for her project on architecture and urbanism in Southeast Asia: The Architecture of Ritual Gesture: The Courtyard Housing of Bali, Indonesia as understood through its Traditional Theatre and Temple Building. 

The Skyscraper Center, CTBUH’s (Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat) comprehensive tall building database, is stewarded by an important editorial board. These board members make invaluable contributions of information and images to enrich the database, and assist with special research projects. The most active member of The Skyscraper Center Editorial Board receives an all-expenses-paid trip to the CTBUH Conference.

Dereck Revington was a guest on CBC Radio's Cross Country Checkup on July 5, 2015.

The question was, What makes a good monument and praise-worthy public art?​ in response to the plans for Cape Breton's Mother Canada statue and Ottawa's Memorial to the victims of communism. Dereck also talks about the Luminous Veil, and is featured beginning at 0:28 minutes. 

Lateral Office (Lola Sheppard, UW, and Mason White, UofT) received an honourable mention in the Cool Schools competition, working with University of Waterloo architecture students Jack Lipson and Kate Holbrook Smith. 

The COOLschool design competition called for proposals for a school building which will act as a safe, comfortable, learning environment for 100 pupils withstanding the extreme temperatures in Mongolia. 

Congratulations to Lateral Office!
