Architecture 5 10 20 – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Welcome back to Architecture 5 10 20! I’m your host, Guy Geier, Managing Partner of FXCollaborative Architects in New York. My guests for this podcast are pioneers and visionaries shaping the future of the built environment across various disciplines. Join me in exploring their remarkable journeys, discovering how they reach their current heights, and envisioning what lies ahead in the next 5, 10, and 20 years.

Join me for this episode as I have an insightful conversation with Ilanah Judah, a former colleague of mine at FXCollaborative and now Americas Climate and Sustainability Leader at Arup. It has been so exciting to watch her grow into a major voice in climate resilience, and she brings a wealth of experience and clarity to a topic that is far too often misunderstood or oversimplified.

Ilana unpacks what resilience really means in the context of the built environment and discusses why it’s not just a checklist of add-ons. She explains how resilience differs from sustainability (even though they are deeply interconnected) and shares why thinking about resilience as an unbroken chain is so important for meaningful impact.

Ilana and I talk through what a resilience journey can actually look like, from risk assessments and future scenarios to implementing and ongoing operations. She, in addition, reflects on how her career path shifted after Superstorm Sandy, why adaptation and emissions reduction need to be addressed together, and what is changing in how clients are thinking about climate risk today.

If you are interested in how buildings and systems can actually prepare for (rather than just respond to) what is coming, then this one is definitely worth a listen. Ilana brings remarkable clarity to a topic that can easily get lost.

Welcome back to Architecture 5 10 20! I’m your host, Guy Geier, Managing Partner of FXCollaborative Architects in New York. My guests for this podcast are pioneers and visionaries shaping the future of the built environment across various disciplines. Join me in exploring their remarkable journeys, discovering how they reach their current heights, and envisioning what lies ahead in the next 5, 10, and 20 years.

Listen in as I have a conversation with my colleague Dan Piselli, FXCollaborative Director of Sustainability. We break down what it actually means for architects to commit to sustainability and discuss the state of climate commitments in architecture and beyond. We talk about how firms are measuring up to the AIA 2030 Commitment, the gaps between goals and actual progress, and, of course, what needs to change if we want to hit those looming 2030 and 2040 climate milestones.

Dan shares his insights into how sustainability has evolved from a niche interest to a central concern in architecture, as well as why some states and firms seem to be going faster than others in energy efficiency. We also talk about the commitments made by mechanical and structural engineers, contractors, and manufacturers because, after all, sustainability isn’t just an architect’s responsibility; it’s an industry-wide effort.

Along the way, we touch on the role of building codes, the impact of energy modeling (or lack thereof), and why some firms are struggling despite their best intentions, and, of course, we confront the big question: are we actually on track to meet net-zero goals, or are we just going through the motions?

Dan shows how industry climate commitments help track progress and drive real change, even though there’s still a lot of work to do. Moving forward, shifting laws and market trends should keep shaping sustainability efforts, with regeneration and adaptation playing big roles. If you are an architect, engineer, or just someone wondering what real climate action looks like in the world of architecture, then this episode is definitely for you.
