AIA Global Campus: From Concept to Reality
鈥
The conversation dives into:
- 鈥Beyond Aesthetics: Why modern architecture is shifting focus toward the tangible difference it can make for the climate.鈥
- A Collective Voice: How the AIA provides a sounding board and secure base for architects navigating increasingly challenging environments.鈥
- Community Connection: Transitioning from "architects talking to architects" to a space that welcomes everyone with open doors.
From testing the furniture in the EVP/CEO鈥檚 office to a surprise gift of AIA socks, this feature captures the importance of understanding the positive impact design has on our world.
In this ByD+ Feature, Executive Producer Mike Chapman returns to the site to see the finished transformation. When Mike last filmed here, the project was still largely in its conceptual stage鈥攁 bold plan for a net-zero headquarters and a hub for the architectural community.
Today, he catches up with 2026 AIA Executive Vice President/CEO Carol Wedge, FAIA, NOMA, LEED AP, to experience the completed space firsthand. Starting at the new Grace Street Coffee Roasters, they explore how biophilic design, flexible event spaces, and community-focused exhibits have turned a historic building into a phenomenal example of adaptive reuse.
