Emerge AEC in the Twin Cities 🏙️

So much beautiful architecture and so many incredible design interventions hidden across the city. We took some time to explore, but please share some more must-see Minneapolis spots below! ⬇️

We’re presenting at the 2023 CSI National Convention and couldn’t imagine a more beautiful week or a more inspiring city to network with fellow AECO professionals in.

💥 Who’s joining us at the SOLD OUT (!!!) CSI Conference!

⭐️ Our September session is upon us!

We are THRILLED to welcome Scott Conwell to share this exciting topic with the EAEC community

“Social Media Content Development for Design and Construction Professionals”

This virtual session is also registered for AIA CEU

Caitlin first met Scott when he presented at the 2022 CSI National Conference in Denver, and still applies his presentation’s tips to her social media strategies to this day.

Scott’s skills as an architect and LinkedIn guru makes him a valuable resource to professionals at every career stage, but especially emerging professionals looking to leverage their unique voice in the age of social media and virtual networking.

💥We HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend this presentation because Scott’s experience to speak on this topic is unmatched. Your strategies on using social media to reach your audience will CHANGE 100% after this session!

📣 Calling all Virginia architecture emerging professionals!

Applications for the AIA Emerging Leaders in Architecture - Class of 2024 are open!

ELA is an intensive program of educational sessions structured around presentations, discussions, and case study activities over the course of a year by a small cadre of participants.

⭐️ Participants are selected for their potential to be outstanding contributors to the profession and the community.

Facilitators and mentors include established leaders in the building, finance, non-profit, development, university, legal, consulting, and design professions and in the community at large.

These leaders develop and deliver sessions, designed to provide participants with skills related to areas of leadership and practice.

🌆 The class project for 2024 will be in Northern Virginia, so many sessions and the project work days will be located in the Northern Virginia area!

A lesson in group site visits 🙌

As part of the Emerging Leaders in Architecture () program, Caitlin toured the Elizabeth River Project - Ryan Resilience Lab in Norfolk, VA!

This resiliency lab has been researched, designed, and constructed to serve as a model for what resilient design and adaptation can look like as we face climate change.

Looking over the second level terrace, it’s clear to see how close surrounding homes are to Knitting Mill Creek. This lab was “Engineered to Withstand Flooding and Respond to Sea Level Rise” (ElizabethRiver.org) and inform the impacted communities of strategies to adapt.

“I was HUMBLED (to say the least) by the true and immediate impact that rising sea levels are having on our coasts. Not something I would see in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia.

However, I am incredibly grateful for these opportunities to tour construction sites and see these innovative designs up close.

Let this serve as a reminder to take EVERY opportunity to get out of the office to experience a new region and learn about evolving building methods.” -Caitlin

Thank you to our hosts for welcoming us to the site and for supporting emerging leaders in architecture + engineering + construction 👏👏
