SUMMARY:UCLA AUD 2025-2026 Distinguished Alumni Lecture: Hsinming Fung
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nHsinming Fung AIA leads Hodgetts + Fung H+F which he co-founded in 1984 to create distinctive environments that support educational needs and cultural activities and public events. H+F employs its design methodology to create architectural works which establish a powerful presence through their complete visitor experience and technological elements. The Hollywood Bowl renovation project and Menlo-Atherton Performing Arts Center and CalArts Wild Beast Pavilion and Jesuit High School Chapel and Nashville Ascend Amphitheater all won various awards. The team currently works on two projects which involve renovating Robert Frost Auditorium in Culver City and developing a mixed-use space in West Hollywood. H+F has been honored with both the AIA Gold Medal and the AIA CC Firm of the Year Award. \nFung serves at SCI-Arc as a Distinguished Faculty member after teaching at both Yale and Ohio State and Cal Poly Pomona. She is a Past President of AIA Los Angeles and the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture. Fung served as Bill Clinton’s National Endowment for the Arts Council Member appointment which included her role as national peer reviewer for the General Services Administration. \nEvent Details\n\n\n\nTitle\nUCLA AUD 2025-2026 Distinguished Alumni Lecture: Hsinming Fung\n\n\nType\nLecture\n\n\nWebsite\nUCLA AUD Event Page\n\n\nOrganizers\nUCLA Architecture and Urban Design\n\n\nDate\nMay 18\, 2026\n\n\nTime\n05:30 PM – 07:00 PM\n\n\nVenue\nUCLA Architecture and Urban Design\, Perloff Hall\n\n\nAddress\n365 Portola Plaza\, Los Angeles\, CA 90095\, USA\n\n\nFees\nFree (registration required)\n\n\n\n✦ ArchUp Editorial Insight\nYour current research focuses on evaluating Hodgetts and Fung’s architectural work\, which encompasses programmatic and cultural and civic architectural design elements through its examination of visitor experience and technological aspects and spatial elements. The discussion presents high-profile projects and design philosophy elements\, but it does not investigate experimental and speculative design methods because it focuses on completed projects. The lecture demonstrates architectural discipline through its process development and design development and building complex systems\, which shows how architects implement their design ideas to create physical structures\, but it does not connect with larger theoretical concepts or urban design principles. \nConclusion\nHsinming Fung\, who has deep knowledge about designing important cultural buildings\, will use this lecture to share his architectural knowledge through his expertise in both architectural design and technical innovation. The public can attend this event at no cost\, which will show them how one leading modern architectural firm operates and what they believe and how their work has influenced society. \nExplore the Latest Architecture Exhibitions & Conferences\n\n\n\nArchUp offers daily updates on top global architectural exhibitions\, design conferences\, and professional art and design forums.

SUMMARY:Marlon Blackwell Lecture 2026
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nMarlon Blackwell Lecture 2026 is part of the UCLA Architecture and Urban Design Winter 2026 lecture series in Los Angeles\, USA. The event showcases architect Marlon Blackwell\, FAIA who shares his architectural design work and contemporary design concepts. \nFocus\nThe lecture\, titled “Out of Place: Architecture Betwixt and Between\,” studies architectural design methods together with the “Radical Practice” principles that Marlon Blackwell established for his studio. The research investigates how architectural design adapts to environmental factors while satisfying the needs of both the community and local areas. \nProgram\nMarlon Blackwell delivers a keynote presentation which leads into a discussion about the work produced by his architectural firm. The lecture demonstrates three main elements through its focus on architectural order and spatial understanding together with its specific response to local circumstances. \nAudience\nThe lecture is open to architects\, design professionals\, students\, preservationists\, historians\, and the general public who wish to study architectural theory and practice together with the design aspects that affect society. \nEvent Details\n\n\n\nItem\nDetails\n\n\nDates\n26 February 2026\n\n\nVenue\nPerloff Hall\, UCLA Architecture and Urban Design\, Los Angeles\, CA\, USA\n\n\nEvent Type\nPublic architectural lecture\n\n\nAccess\nFree public event; registration may be required\n\n\nFees\nFree\n\n\n\n✦ ArchUp Editorial Insight\nThe Marlon Blackwell Lecture 2026 provides an opportunity to study architectural theory togetherwith context‑responsive design. The lecture presents the core principles of “Radical Practice” which demonstrate formal design elements through civic participation and site-specific and community-based responsiveness. The study provides architectural understanding of how designers connect their abstract concepts with real world social and environmental elementsyet it fails to explain building methodsand material testingand business implementations. The foundation of this research centerrests on its ability to generate discussions about design philosophy together with design-based evaluation processeswhich create architectural knowledge through practical exercises. \nCritical Conclusion\nMarlon Blackwell Lecture 2026 is a cultural and intellectual event focused on architectural ideas and design philosophy. The study centralizes its focus on theoretical research and reflective practice while it does not include methods for building construction or commercial business development. \nExplore the Latest Architecture Exhibitions & Conferences\n\n\n\nArchUp offers daily updates on top global architectural exhibitions\, design conferences\, and professional art and design forums.
