SCI-Arc Main Event 2020, which will be held on May 2 at SCI-Arc’s campus in downtown LA’s Arts District, is the most glittering and lively affair of the academic year, supporting the SCI-Arc Scholarship Endowment. At the gala guests can enjoy drinks, music, and alimentary fare, all while experiencing an exclusive site-specific multimedia installation and performance that will be unlike anything ever seen before at SCI-Arc. Main Event brings together alumni and friends as well as leading designers, builders, and creative professionals to celebrate SCI-Arc's reputation as a world-renowned center for innovation and architectural thinking.
In the challenging context of accelerating climate dynamics, the core discipline of architectural design is evolving and embracing new forms of action. New York-based nonprofit Terreform ONE has established a distinctive design tactic that investigates projects through the regenerative use of natural materials, science, and the emergent field of socio-ecological design. This kind of design approach uses actual living matter (not abstracted imitations of nature) to create new functional elements and spaces.

Being an Architect or Interior designer is not an easy job. It’s been long years of Hardworking which goes through days and nights. But what we expect after college to land on a great job or open our own firm or do some freelancing.
Connecting the technical and conceptual, the work of Anne Tyng stands out within and beyond the field of architecture. Through independent projects, in addition to her work with architects Louis Kahn and Pier Luigi Nervi, Tyng explored geometry as it relates to natural form and construction. She approached design as a process and profession through teaching and writing, addressing the social, psychological, and experiential dynamics of creativity and collaboration; her work has influenced other practitioners as well as models of practice. At the center of this conference is the question, “How do we position the legacy of an architect whose interests and methods remain relevant in contemporary discourse?” Anne Tyng: Ordered Randomness reconsiders established histories by tracing Tyng’s design approach through built and unbuilt works, and further explores continuing resonances of her work as found in current architectural and engineering practices.
