Few professions were upended by the past two years as much as teachers.  Met with immediate school shutdowns, technology inequities, and learning gaps, teachers must also navigate the more enduring changes in how we learn and work. 

While schools have been good at prioritizing improved student experience and performance, they have been, generally speaking, less successful in providing spaces that support those responsible for delivering those outcomes. Corgan’s 2022 study, Design Lessons from Teachers, surveys 1000 K-12 teachers from across the nation to uncover the challenges and opportunities in school design to better support teacher performance, satisfaction, recruitment, and ultimately, student outcomes. 

Since the firm’s original study on teacher pain points and preferences in 2019, surveyed teachers cited limited learning environments as a primary source of stress—35%, up by 10% while also citing its increased importance in their ability to be a good teacher—71% compared to 38% in 2019.

So, what do teachers need? Sangeetha Karthik, Associate Principal in Corgan’s Education practice and Melissa Hoelting, Design Research Specialist at Hugo, Corgan’s Research and Development team, share the top five lessons from teachers and what they need from school design.

Did you know that concrete is the second most used resource in the world, next to water? Making concrete is a complex process— using the studies of chemistry, physics, and engineering, coupled with hundreds of elements all rolled into one. 

On this week’s episode of TheSquare Podcast, we have a curious conversation with Brent Rollins, Vice President of Business Development for Spray-Lock Concrete Protection, a US-based colloidal silica producer. With over 20 years of experience in the mixed concrete industry, Brent has consulted and published globally on concrete durability and infrastructure resilience and serves on several committees with ASTM and ACI.  

Listen in as Brent talks about how his experiences living abroad and passion for homeland security have shaped his work and how a closer look at historic structure can provide new insights and inspiration for the future. Let’s get curious!

While the primary function of most places— from schools, offices, and retail spaces to hospitals and theme parks— are fairly different, they all share the desire to promote a sense of belonging and loyalty in support of a common goal. Virtual and hybrid platforms are reshaping how we experience everything from retail and entertainment, learning and collaborating and how we work. Employers are now faced with the challenge and opportunity to recreate those everyday interactions that deepen our connection to the brand, mission, people— and ultimately build belonging in a hybrid world. 

Enter: Branded Environments. Leveraging physical spaces to tell a story, branded environments use the language of brand and design to tell the unique story of each space and organization. On this week’s episode of TheSquare Podcast, we are joined by David Rose and Micaela Fangue, who are both on the Branded Environments team at Corgan, to discuss the possibilities of storytelling in the built environment, experiential design, and how branded environments can help employees form a sense of belonging, engagement, and loyalty.

The Midfield Satellite Concourse (MSC) is a multi-billion-dollar modernization program at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), considered the largest public works program in the history of the City of Los Angeles. In this episode of TheSquare Podcast, we sit down with David Kim, Senior Architect at LAWA, and David Huor, Aviation Architect at Corgan, to speak on the unique design process for the West Gates at LAX MSC and the innovative technology that played a significant role in it. 

From the Automated People Mover train, food delivery robots, and universal Wi-Fi to systems that track your bag from check-in to the plane— the West Gates at LAX MSC incorporated state-of-the-art technology to provide a world-class travel experience, faster connections, and improve operational efficiency and passenger accessibility. Kim and Huor discuss not only the technologies implemented in the design but also how emerging technologies, such as augmented and virtual reality, played a prominent role in the design and construction process.

On this week’s episode of TheSquare Podcast, we have a curious conversation with Brooklyn-born, Staten Island raised, and now Dallas-based artist, JM Rizzi, who specializes in large-scale murals, public sculpture installations, and mixed media canvases. As a gestural expressionist, Rizzi’s ever-growing conceptual practice explores the multitudinous angles to abstraction.  

Rizzi’s greatest focus lies in synthesizing all that he observes and all that inspires him. His hands passively conduct ideas, histories, subcultures, and emotions. Regardless of scale, his work possesses an undeniable ability for placemaking. Bold, playful, and incredibly colorful, Rizzi likens his work’s hues to musical notes—bright hues are horn pops, muted tones form bass lines. Tune in to hear Rizzi discuss his process and greatest milestones—from comic books and graffiti to murals at Rockefeller Center and in Sweden and China. Let’s get curious!
