<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 17.6px;">Dear All,</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 17.6px;">The Chinese government promotes green construction as part of the strategy to reduce energy consumption. In practice, green construction can be impeded because various stakeholders valuate green attributes in different ways. This paper uses the analytic hierarchy process to analyse the extent to which developers and planners understand the valuation of green apartment attributes by residents in Nanjing. Results show that buyers of green apartments rank green attributes lower than safety and accessibility, and rank healthy construction materials and comfort much higher than thermal isolation or reduced energy costs. Green developers tend to focus on aspects that define their margin, such as green attributes and locational benefits and overlook the social needs, which are not addressed in building codes and not under their control. They have better understanding of green residents' priorities with health issues; planners are more familiar with the social needs of residents and lack green marketing knowledge.</span></div>

<span style="color: #494343; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">University students find it easier to retain information when using books and handwriting notes rather than computers, according to a survey of European and Asian students. </span><span style="color: #494343; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">A </span><a data-module="breaking_news-body" data-mz="" data-position="body" href="http://eprints.lse.ac.uk/69182/" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #1169a3; font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; text-decoration: none;">study</a><span style="color: #494343; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"> of almost 650 students from 10 countries found that </span><span style="color: #494343; font-family: times, "times new roman", serif;">w</span><span style="color: #494343; font-family: times, "times new roman", serif;">hile computers often dominate teaching and learning at universities, students still see the benefits of reading and writing with paper.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: xx-small;">The research, <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Students’ use of paper and pen versus digital media in university environments for writing and reading</em>, surveyed undergraduates and postgraduates in Italy, the UK, Slovenia, Bulgaria, Hungary, Russia, China, Portugal, Finland and Germany.<span style="background-color: white;">Jane Vincent, guest teacher and </span>visiting<span style="background-color: white;"> fellow at the </span><a data-module="article-uni-link" data-mz="" href="https://www.timeshighereducation.com/world-university-rankings/london-school-of-economics-and-political-science" style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #1169a3; text-decoration: none;">London School of Economics and Political Science</a><span style="background-color: white;">’s department of media and communications and author of the study, said that the students were fairly consistent in their feedback.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">“One of the reasons some students favour handwriting is the role it plays in learning and retaining knowledge,” she said. "Many of the students in our study found [that] making handwritten notes leads to greater retention of data than if it is typed.”</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Students also experienced difficulties in writing mathematic and scientific formulas and graphs on computers, the study found. But they noted that searching for information, correcting typed material, spell checking and legibility were all advantages of using a computer.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Dr Vincent, who conducted the research while she was based at the </span><a data-module="article-uni-link" data-mz="" href="https://www.timeshighereducation.com/world-university-rankings/university-of-surrey" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; box-sizing: border-box; color: #1169a3; font-family: times, "times new roman", serif; text-decoration: none;">University of Surrey</a><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">, said: “Despite problems with posture and tired eyes, reading and writing online is usually more practical in university settings.”</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">The research also picked up some national differences when it came to the preferences of students.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">For example, Chinese students tended to favour writing by hand because they felt they were able to better express themselves in the strokes of handwritten characters than in coded form on the computer, while Italian students cited paper’s “sensorial” qualities.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">“I like very much to enjoy the scent of a book through the fragrance of the paper,” said one Italian student.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Meanwhile, younger students in Russia generally preferred reading and typing on screen as they were less accustomed to handwriting and reading printed books. Students from Bulgaria and Finland also preferred computers over paper.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Overall most students favoured using a mix of paper and computers.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 11pt;">Making smart design decisions is harder than you think. First, you have to give up your personal preferences. Second, you have to scan yourself for biases refusing to consider alternative points of view and third, you must use data to design a product beneficial for the end user.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 11pt;">I lead a team of designers, but I am the most effective when I can get out of their way to let them do their best work. I do this by setting up product and design processes, reaching out to cross-functional leads, facilitating collaboration, and giving strategic product feedback. When things go awry on projects, I help play detective to find the source<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>issue,<span class="apple-converted-space"></span> </span>and give my team any backup they need to resolve it. I also actively mentor my team to help them improve their skills and work on their career paths. In a pinch, I will play at being an actual designer too, but frankly, it’s better done by my team.<o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 11pt;">A “smart design decision” is a decision that helps you move the design forward for a product. To do so, you need to have a good sense of your project objectives, and whether they are business or user-focused. Clear and early communication with your engineering, product, and marketing partners will correctly define the objectives before you get started. When you reach a crossroads, identify the most divergent paths at the highest level possible, decide with the right people in the room, and move on. By the highest level, I mean for example, that it’s useless to discuss color options when you haven’t nailed down the navigation model.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 11pt;">Instead of a typical approval process, we have a twice-a-week peer review session. While everyone gives feedback, it’s up to the individual designers to decide what to do with it. This gives the team ownership over their own work, and they also realize the responsibility of being able to decide and consider feedback carefully. It’s a collaborative environment where we all work together to improve products, rather than the more traditional design critique where the presenter is often on the defensive.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 11pt;">For those presenting, they set context first before going through the design, and that includes the level of feedback they are looking to receive — is this an early interaction concept or a final visual icon? On the reviewer side, while suggestions and solutions are certainly welcome, they ought to be phrased in terms of the problem so that the designer isn’t just applying feedback blindly. For example, instead of “I think you should add more thumbnails”, one could say “I don’t get a sense of how much content the site actually has. One option is to add more thumbnails. Or ...”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 11pt;">As a design lead, I serve as a moderator, eliciting feedback from everyone and making sure we stay on task — not trying to design in the session, that would take too long! I also wait for my team to give their feedback first and only say something if I have something news to add at the end. This ensures that the session is owned by the team, not the boss. Or, at least I try. You can ask my team how well that’s going.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 11pt;">We had a short window to launch <a href="https://view.yahoo.com/" style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;" target="_blank"><span style="border: none 1.0pt; color: #003891; font-family: "inherit" , "serif"; padding: 0cm; text-decoration: none;">Yahoo View</span></a>, so we quickly had to determine our product strategy. This ended up being a combination of barebones “tablestakes” must-have TV features plus some experimenting with delightful differentiators. For watching functionality, after identifying major user flows and doing a quick competitive analysis, we easily came up with a list of basic features. Differentiators are a little harder. We partnered with research to understand who our potential users and their motivations and behaviors are. From there, to narrow down brainstorm ideas, we user-tested some very different concepts at the storyboard and static prototype stages before committing the full design, engineering, and product resources to build them out.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

What soft skills should other managers implement for smarter designs?</span></b></span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 11pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; line-height: 16.8pt; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 12.0pt; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 11pt;">I’ve found these two skills to be the most handy as a design manager.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-margin-after: 0px; -webkit-margin-before: 0px; -webkit-padding-start: 0px; background: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 16.8pt; margin: 12pt 0cm; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 11pt;">One, the ability to analyze process and progress, then to make adjustments to improve them, results in a team that is happy with their work. For example, if a designer is not getting enough time to make good design decisions, I need to figure out whether it’s because product goals aren’t clear, timelines are unrealistic, or there’s an inefficiency, before I can help fix it. The solution then could be something like better integration of design into scrum, setting up more frequent reviews, or creating new Sketch templates for team reuse. Solving things at the process level improves things going forward for the whole design team.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-margin-after: 0px; -webkit-margin-before: 0px; -webkit-padding-start: 0px; background: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 16.8pt; margin: 12pt 0cm; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 11pt;">Second, I’ve found the ability to understand the reasoning behind what people say to be invaluable. In heated discussions, it lets me surface the core point, which cuts the meeting time in half and brings forward the one item that people are trying to decide upon. This allows a direction to be set, which then allows for better design.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-margin-after: 0px; -webkit-margin-before: 0px; -webkit-padding-start: 0px; background: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 16.8pt; margin: 12pt 0cm; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 11pt;">To make all of this work, I need to know when to step away and when to step in. I like to think of it as developing a stress radar — it detects how individuals are doing with their projects, and whether it’s a healthy stress from an intense project or an unhealthy one from interpersonal conflict, for example.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-margin-after: 0px; -webkit-margin-before: 0px; -webkit-padding-start: 0px; background: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 16.8pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 11pt;">There are cases where we intentionally design things that may not get built or launched, for learning purposes. User research prototypes and bucket experiments fall under this umbrella, and as long as the team understands that killing ideas actually leads to better product and more efficient use of time in the end, that’s totally okay.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-margin-after: 0px; -webkit-margin-before: 0px; -webkit-padding-start: 0px; background: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 16.8pt; margin: 12pt 0cm; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 11pt;">On the other hand, there are cases where the poor designer is on iteration 15 of the design, either because the product goals are unclear or feedback is inconsistent. We’ve all been there.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-margin-after: 0px; -webkit-margin-before: 0px; -webkit-padding-start: 0px; background: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 16.8pt; margin: 12pt 0cm; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 11pt;">To prevent that from happening too often, we need to start with a solid agreement and understanding of goals between the product leads, partners, engineers and designer. Easier said than done, of course. During a project, what you can do is, first, notice when things are starting to meander. At this point, it is wise to stop your work and put your efforts into solidifying goals with stakeholders. Think ahead, keep designs at a high level, focusing on user flows rather than detailed wireframes until direction is more set.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 11pt;">When seasoned designers show work to each other or to cross-functional partners, they first identify who the stakeholders are, and whether it’s best to connect in a formal group presentation, casual desk show-and-tell, or an intimate 1-1 conversation. Each one has pros and cons, and really depends on the personality of your particular stakeholders.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 11pt;">During the session, they start by setting context on the project and goals they’re trying to solve. Then, they either state the level of feedback they’re looking for (pixels and specific copy? product strategy?), or point out the specific elements that require opinions. This gets everyone on the same page and results in more relevant feedback.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-margin-after: 0px; -webkit-margin-before: 0px; -webkit-padding-start: 0px; background: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 16.8pt; margin: 12pt 0cm; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; font-size: 11pt;">After the session, it’s a good idea to follow up with written summaries of what was agreed and action items, because making it concrete will expose any misperceptions among the participants. It’s kind of surprising how everyone can seem to agree in person but a week later, have entirely different takes on the conversation, but it always happens! This can be done casually, over chat, or more formally over email.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;">A new exhibition opens next week at the Hubbell Street Galleries in San Francisco, part of the California College of the Arts, called <a href="http://digitalcraft.cca.edu/research/drawing-codes" style="background-color: transparent; border-bottom: 1px solid red; box-shadow: currentcolor 0px 0px 0px 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: black; text-decoration: none;"><em style="box-sizing: inherit;">Drawing Codes: Experimental Protocols of Architectural Representation</em></a>. The idea behind the group show is to look at “the relationship between <em style="box-sizing: inherit;">code</em> and <em style="box-sizing: inherit;">drawing</em>” (emphases theirs), or “how rules and constraints inform the ways we document, analyze, represent, and design the built environment.”</span></div>

<div style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-top: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;">As Kudless—of <a href="http://matsysdesign.com/" style="background-color: transparent; border-bottom: 1px solid red; box-shadow: currentcolor 0px 0px 0px 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: black; text-decoration: none;">Matsys</a> fame—pointed out to me over email, the curators “gave all of the participants a set of codes that they had to follow (e.g. all black and white, orthographic projection, 25″ x 25″, etc.),” using this set of constraints to, among other things, foreground differences in approach between each participating architect.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;">If everyone’s doing the same thing, then how each person does it becomes more revealing.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;">Perhaps ironically, it was actually the drawing by Kudless himself—which I first <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BPJ0xhPjCfL" style="background-color: transparent; border-bottom: 1px solid red; box-shadow: currentcolor 0px 0px 0px 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: black; text-decoration: none;">saw on Instagram</a>—that caught my interest.</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-top: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;">Called “The Walled City (10-Mile Version),” that project imagines an entire metropolis that is nothing but one, continuous wall.</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-top: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;">Kudless explained that it came about by posing himself a rhetorical question: “What would a city look like if it was a wall and nothing else? I’ve been fascinated with walls that have grown thick enough to be buildings in themselves. From medieval European city walls to the Great Wall in China, there is something really interesting about taking something that is ostensively about separating two territories and turning into an inhabitable space in its own right.”</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;">The results: a rule-constrained exploration of how a wall could become a city.</span></div>
<blockquote style="border: 0px solid rgb(255, 255, 255); box-sizing: inherit; color: #4f4f4f; line-height: 1.55; margin: -1.4em 0px 1.8em 3.3em; overflow: hidden; padding: 0px 0px 0px 2em; quotes: none;">
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-top: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;">I started to play around with slowly increasing a wall’s length while preventing it from moving outside a site or intersecting itself. At a certain point in the growth process, the wall takes over the entire site. There is still an inside and outside to the wall, but sometimes the outside is deep inside the site boundary or vice versa. At that point, I was left with a big squiggly wall, but realized that I needed some sort of roofscape to make it read as a city and not just a thick wall. That’s when I turned to Google’s autocomplete feature to give me suggestions on what programs [spatial functions] a rooftop might support. I worked my way from A to Z pretty much accepting whatever suggestion Google’s autocomplete gave me and started designing parametric definitions that could implement that program on a number of different sites along the wall’s top.</span></div>

<div style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-top: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;">The various social and architectural functions distributed around the massive roofscape included, for example, Rooftop Antenna, Rooftop Bar, Rooftop Cafe, Rooftop Deck, Rooftop Exhaust, Rooftop Film, Rooftop Garden, Rooftop Hotel Pool, and so on.</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-top: 1.5em; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;">Interestingly, Kudless also pointed out that, if he were to run the same generative script again, it would likely produce “a similar, but not identical city,” and it would almost certainly not result in a wall exactly ten miles in length (which, in this case, was purely a coincidence, he explained).</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , serif;">In any case, I’ve been impressed by Kudless’s work for a long time; check out these older posts on his projects <a href="http://www.bldgblog.com/2009/09/hexagonal-hydropolis/"><i><span style="color: black; text-decoration: none;">Nevada Sietch</span></i></a> and <a href="http://www.bldgblog.com/2014/11/art-arm/"><span style="color: black; text-decoration: none;">robotic drawing protocols</span></a>, for example, and then stop by the exhibition when it opens next week.
