We’ve had some great harvest lately! Our colleages have put our harvested greens to delicious use!
With the huge support of Focus on the Family, IDA launched our very first Meet My Boss Day! We invited our colleagues to bring their kids to work for a day of activities. The day started off with a Love Literate workshop facilitated by trainer, Darren Tan, followed by lunch with the bosses. After lunch, they had a taste of what it is like to be an Architect. As a team, they designed their very own school, and had the opportunity to enter the school they designed in virtual reality.
ID Architects was invited by BCA to speak for the Network for Productivity Leadership (NPL) Session last July. NPL members were given insights on how ID Architects have adopted VDC on Furniture Hub. The session hopes to encourage more participation from the building community to improve productivity through BIM / VDC.
IDA has conducted a staff meeting covering the new direction IDA is taking – VR Studio, Computational Design, the new Website, Green Fingers, and a briefing for the upcoming Company trip.
Architect Johan Hanegraaf from Dutch based design firm Mecanoo shared his knowledge with the IDA team covering topics from computational design, BIM, and VR based design. He also gave a preview of his ongoing project, Archispace, a solution for architects to design, simulate and communicate in a virtual space. Visit his blog.
For the annual International BIM Competition (IBC) organised by BCA, IDA gave a lecture at Singapore polytechnic as a primer to the competition, preparing the students and participants for the competition. the topics covered included application of computational design to actual practice scenarios, and aimed to inform and inspire the participants on the utility and potential of the tools available.
IDA received the BCA BIM Gold Award at an event held on June 13, 2017. IDA was recognized for its innovation efforts – adopting computational design and an improved BIM workflow. With this milestone, IDA is committed to collaborating and sharing these innovations with other industry affiliates. One of the goals is to build a community where ideas will spur transformation of the building industry as a whole. Investment on new technologies such as VR and AR will be paramount.
