Dear PA Reader,

Quebec City’s historic fortifications and Frank Lloyd Wright’s architectural legacy highlight how timeless design continues to shape contemporary thinking. Meanwhile, the Sharjah Architecture Triennial 2026 introduces a diverse group of participants, offering a glimpse into the future of global architecture and design.

Innovation unfolds across multiple disciplines with Fujiko Nakaya’s immersive fog sculpture transforming Mies van der Rohe’s landscape into a living artwork, Seattle Airport’s new C Concourse enhancing passenger experience, LEGO’s Kornmarken Campus redefining workplace design, and Ferrari’s 12Cilindri Manuale bringing a fresh perspective to high-performance driving.

The intersection of architecture, art, technology, and climate remains at the forefront as the Omega Block weather phenomenon raises new questions about resilient cities and environmental adaptation. Also, lets talk about The Inverted Pyramid nobody talks about where there are too many architects and not enough clients.

Dynamic Wearables for Fashion Design 2.0

This workshop expands the logic of dynamic wearables from jewelry-scale precision into garment-scale body systems, teaching students how to generate, map, segment, and fabricate computational designs that move between ornament, accessory, and fashion. The workshop is scheduled for July 18 & 19, 2026.

Hybrid Modeling with ZBrush

This workshop explores hybrid digital modeling workflows by integrating sculptural, parametric, and hard-surface design techniques. Centered around ZBrush as the primary tool, participants will develop intricate high-resolution geometries by bridging multiple software environments, including Adobe Illustrator and Rhinoceros 3D. The workshop is scheduled for July 11 & 12, 2026.
