Architectural Revolution

Context is everything in design. The context of a place will look into the relationship between an environment and the buildings situated within it. A location's historical, cultural, physical and economic landscapes is the context in which when applied well, allows design for human use to thrive. In this episode, Baerbel Mueller walks us through how she works, through research and studying the context of a place which she and her team members and collaborators use to craft spaces that work for the people who would use them. Baerbel then provides valuable insights into the intersection of research and design and how they are not so much as separate elements when the users of spaces need their needs met.NotesTo learn more about Baerbel, visit her; Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nav_s_baerbelmueller/[Applied] Foreign Affairs: https://appliedforeignaffairs.uni-ak.ac.at/Nav_S Baerbel Mueller: http://www.nav-s.net/🔗 Connect with Ziwu: YouTube: https://youtube.com/@studioziwu?si=ezm3zmtRZEbDDyQ- Instagram: ⁠The Ziwu | Architect (@studioziwu) • Instagram photos and videos⁠🔔 Subscribe to Architectural Revolution on all Platforms: https://plinkhq.com/i/1615824613?to=pageDon't forget to like, comment, leave a review and subscribe for more relevant conversations like this!

Housing is in short supply and one of the reasons you can say that is, is due to the current material we use to build. In comes Geopolymer Interlocking Blocks which could make us build faster and more sustainably as it has less cement content. The interlocking blocks make it an interesting building material as you may not need a whole lot of expertise to put up a building. This might just save the housing crisis we are facing in Ghana and the world.NotesTo learn more about Evans visit his; LinkedIn⁠: (18) Evans Nartey, EDGE Expert | LinkedIn🔗 Connect with Ziwu: YouTube: https://youtube.com/@studioziwu?si=ezm3zmtRZEbDDyQ- Instagram: ⁠The Ziwu | Architect (@studioziwu) • Instagram photos and videos⁠🔔 Subscribe to Architectural Revolution on all Platforms: https://plinkhq.com/i/1615824613?to=pageDon't forget to like, comment, leave a review and subscribe for more relevant conversations like this!

There is a past we are losing. From our history to our architecture. Is there even an architecture we are losing? Some might say, what defines Ghanaian architecture for us to also lose it. Heritage is an important factor in architecture we should never lose, else we might never know how to truly proceed for the future generation of architecture. In this episode, Kojo Derban takes us through on a bit of a journey on the heritage of Ghanaian architecture. What are we losing and can the old be saved.

Project management int the AEC industry used to bug me for a while. I never got the need for project managers on a jobsite when an architect can perform the same role. Project managers in other industries on the other hand, I was all for it. In this episode, I talk with Samuel on project management as a whole and the aspects it deals with when it comes to the building industry. There were a lot of things that needs to be said and understood, about how it all works to make a building project successful. Afterall, it can ruin a project if not done right.NotesTo learn more about Samuel visit his LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/samuel-opoku-owusu-agia-pmp%C2%AE-b73078149?utm_source=share&utm_campaign=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=android_app🔗 Connect with Ziwu: YouTube: https://youtube.com/@studioziwu?si=ezm3zmtRZEbDDyQ- Instagram: ⁠The Ziwu | Architect (@studioziwu) • Instagram photos and videos⁠🔔 Subscribe to Architectural Revolution on all Platforms: https://plinkhq.com/i/1615824613?to=pageDon't forget to like, comment, leave a review and subscribe for more relevant conversations like this!

Real estate has been a sector with many whims. People have made their fortunes with it and people have lost everything as well. In some small part, I play a role in the real estate market, just a tiny role. I sat down with Makafui Kuffo, who researches on the real estate market and is actively a part of it in diverse ways with Saasepedia.

The trailer for the second anthology series of guests who share their stories and the amazing things they do.

It is the end of the year, the end of Book 3 but not the end of Architectural Revolution. I give a bit of review of this year's book and the things to come in the following year. Don't forget about AR because it won't forget about you and keep bringing you information that looks to create a shift in the mindset around Architecture and its connecting industries.

The bathroom is always found in any type of residence, house or home. Be it a one-bedroom apartment/chamber and hall, a studio/self-contain or a two-bedroom apartment, you would always need and find a bathroom. But if you were to build your own home or renovate an existing bathroom, how would you make it yours. How can you design it to make it just right. In this episode, I talk how to do just that. I talk about what you might need in the bathroom/washroom and the things to consider to get it right the first time.

Shelter is everything to you. We might not think much about it if you have a roof over your head. But when you're building on your home or with the help of a professional it would be on your mind.

We cook. We eat. We clean. Basically, you could say these are the functions created as a result of having a kitchen. Even if we do not have a kitchen, we still need a space to perform them. In this episode, I talk about the necessities within a kitchen, how they can be zone and the multitude of uses that a kitchen helps us to perform in a organised manner. These needs are then brought together to help you think about the ways in which to design your very own kitchen to your liking and preference for efficient and effective cooking, eating and cleaning.

Materials and products are in abundance. It is in this abundance that you may find it difficult to choose the right materials for you and your building project. In this episode, I talk about the factors that would help you thoroughly consider each individual material you would want and need for your project.

We're losing recipes. The home is no more what it was in the 70's or how we remember it from print media. Big Real Estate, has changed how homes are made in the country and I don't know if it is to cut costs, which it is. There is hardly any space left to do stuff outdoors, and if there is, nothing is considered. If you are lucky to have space in your home, this chapter looks at what things you can use your outdoor space for to elevate your living experience. It is all about you and what would make life better in your home.

A House is a house, but no two types are the same. People use the names of different housing types to describe one when they mean another, causing confusion all over.

The third book of Architectural Revolution comes your way again after a change in programming. The new book brings you diverse thoughts and ramblings on a few things in the architecture of your home that you should be aware of and shouldn't ignore.

Some say we had it good. Things aren't looking good currently and therefore yearn for things of old. In the same way, some people are saying houses aren't being designed or built well. There's an evolving architecture trend that does not look good for the community, and the people are beginning to notice and complain. The complaints have been heard, and in this episode, Ziwu talks with Julian Fritzal about the new trend of houses people are not fond of. Julian Fritzal takes you through what could be happening, how it all begun, and what you can do to make sure your house does not follow the trend.

Is the architecture industry dying? Would money be the cause of it, and is it pushing architects to explore other alternatives of surviving in the AEC (Architecture, Engineering and Construction) industry just to stay afloat? There's a surge of architects moving parallel in the industry and providing construction services to clients so they can corner another piece of the market and survive. Does it make for good business and design? Or does it reduce one's expertise in an industry? In this episode, Ziwu has a conversation with Papa Kofi Dako on this new movement, if it brings in disaster or relief to Architecture clients and their projects. Papa Kofi takes you through whether it is necessary for professional architects to take this direction in the 21st century and the thinking behind it.

Hawkers and informal traders have always been part of our community. They provide us with services on our streets and roads that would be difficult for us to get when on the road. One time or another, people have thought them to be a nuisance to our urban lives and said the hawking system should be abolished.

One misconception about architecture is that it serves only the rich and powerful. Architecture is for everyone, and that includes you. In this episode, Wisdom Afedzi talks about social architecture and its long-standing relationship with helping society.

A new segment, a new book. The first anthology brings you a collection of thoughts and stories from diverse individuals in the architecture field, sharing their knowledge and what they would like for you to be aware of.

The second book comes to an end, and there are a few things Ziwu talks about to bring it to a close and possibly give a hint on what could be next. Find out what it is.

Building a house seems straightforward to anyone, including you, and you are at least aware of the processes involved in constructing one. In this last chapter of Book 2, Ziwu talks about the processes used in building a home by building professionals. The process is also applicable to constructing any other building and would be useful for you to know when your building project is being put up. Get to know the stages involved in the building process and be a pro at it.

There is no point in engaging an architect when you have no idea of what you are willing and capable of spending for your project. The creation of your construction budget helps you know how much you are able to spend on your building project and if it is possible to fund those dreams. Without a budget to speak of, there is no clear direction on where the cost of the building project might end up. Everyone needs a budget before they can start to have their project designed, including you. Ziwu takes you through 3 methods of creating an approximate budget that is realistic depending on what you want.

Every building project or structure you want to have put up needs a permit that would grant you permission to do just that. Getting a permit might seem like a long and tiring process, and that is why in this chapter, Ziwu takes you through the 6-step process of applying and getting the building permit for your design project. If you ever want to do it on your own, the process will help you know what to do and what to expect. In the event an architect is applying on your behalf, this chapter will give you an insight into what goes on during the process and the inevitable long wait. Ready to know more?

Materials are everything that forms part of a building. They are what we feel and touch in a building that has been put together to form the buildings we use every day. In this chapter, Ziwu mentions a few materials he designs with in his architecture journey and would like to share with you what they are and the possibilities they offer, when you use them in your building projects.
