Hooray for Summer Interns! Meet Tamara Malhas who is working in our Hartford office. Tamara received her Bachelor of Science in Architecture in May from the University of Massachusetts. She served as a design studio teaching assistant this spring, and her previous internships include one with Faris & Faris Architects in Amman, Jordan, where she worked on preliminary concepts for a modular kindergarten. Her artistic hobbies include charcoal drawing, pen and ink and collage. We are glad to have you with us this summer, Tamara!

Show Your Amenta Emma Pride!
As part of our Pride Month celebration, our JEDI team created a special t-shirt which can be purchased through our Custom Ink fundraising page. A portion of each sale will be donated to @hglhc_1983 – a Hartford-based nonprofit health clinic for LBGTQIA+ support, services, education and advocacy. Please consider buying a shirt or making a donation. Link in bio.

As employees return to the office, several big questions emerge. What kind of environment can employers provide that will encourage people to come back to the office? What lessons have we learned from Covid 19 about creating safe, healthy work environments? How will employers and employees negotiate the politics of shared space? Our research has revealed three overarching ideas about the future workplace. Read more in our latest Insight - Designs for a Hybrid Workplace - by AE interior designer Mallory Przybylowski.

NBC New York visited the recently completed lobby we designed at 575 Madison Ave for a story about NYC office buildings preparing for employees to return to the workplace. The bright and eye-catching lobby differentiates this skyscraper as companies sign new leases and bring employees back to the office. Link in bio.

Happy Earth Day! In 2020 Amenta Emma committed to the Architecture 2030 Challenge. We have made great progress over the past year with addressing sustainable strategies in our projects and within our offices. These include:
• Revamping our materials library to include predominately ‘mindful materials’ and red-list free options.
• Updating our in-office recycling initiatives as well as using the Terracycle program.
• Using Cove.tool to begin analyzing our projects as they pertain to daylighting, orientation, wall assemblies and mechanical systems to reduce the overall EUI (Energy Use Intensity) of what we design.
• Introducing sustainability-focused language into our programming documents to encourage clients to incorporate these concepts into their buildings.
• Entering the data from many of our previous buildings’ performance evaluations into a national database (DDX) to compare how our buildings function with similar projects around the nation.
We are proud of what we as a firm has accomplished so far, and are enthusiastic about the changes our professional community is making to achieve carbon neutrality.
