SUMMARY:Blueprints for: Project Management
DESCRIPTION:Blueprints for Leadership: A Series of Workshops (2 LUs)	\n\n			Empowering Architects at Every Stage of Their Career	\n				\n	Blueprints for Leadership is a dynamic series of workshops designed to help architects build essential skills in strategic thinking\, business acumen\, and effective management. Led by top experts in their fields\, each session offers premium instruction and meaningful networking opportunities. \n	Future sessions are still being finalized but may include topics on self-leadership\, leading high-performing teams\, project management\, personal branding\, and more! \nWhether you’re just starting out or looking to refine your leadership toolkit\, these sessions are crafted to support your growth. Attend one or attend them all-each workshop stands alone but together forms a comprehensive professional development experience. \n\n			#3 blueprints for project management	\n\n			Raising the Bar on Client Relationships: From Technical Expert to Trusted Partner	\n	Most projects don’t fail because of design – they fail because trust breaks down. Technical excellence gets you in the room; trust determines whether you stay there long term. \nIn an environment where clients face increasing pressure\, uncertainty\, and complexity\, technical expertise alone is no longer enough to earn loyalty. The architects who stand out are the ones who go beyond the scope to truly understand their clients’ goals\, concerns\, and business drivers – and deliver in a way that builds lasting trust. Clients rarely leave because of design mistakes; they leave when they don’t feel seen and heard. \n				\n	Join Corey Campbell\, Executive Performance Coach and CEO & Founder of Akamai Training & Consulting\, for this interactive session exploring how the most important work of an architect often happens before the first drawing is ever created. Participants will examine their current approach and explore how to raise the bar on client interactions – leading projects as trusted partners\, not just technical experts. \n	Through real-world examples and reflective dialogue\, participants will: \n\nLearn how to go beyond scope and deliverables to understand a client’s true goals\, pressures\, and business drivers.\nExamine methods to uncover what truly matters to clients and help them feel seen\, heard\, and understood.\nExplore how leadership presence and ownership influence client confidence\, loyalty\, and team performance.\nReframe project management as people management – taking ownership of relationships\, communication\, and outcomes.\n\nCome ready to reflect\, engage\, and elevate how you build trust – with clients\, teams\, and yourself as a leader.\n	DATE: Friday\, January 30\nTIME: Workshop: 3:00 PM – 5:00 PM | Pau Hana: 5:00 PM – 6:00 PM\nWHERE: Center for Architecture\, 828 Fort Street Mall\, Suite 100\, Honolulu\nCOST: $75 (Includes workshop and Pau Hana networking)\nCEU: This qualifies for 2 AIA/CES LUs.\nPARKING: Click here for parking suggestions \n\n			RSVP FOR BLUEPRINTS FOR PROJECT MANAGEMENT	\n			\n				\n\n	\n	\n		$75.00 \n Tickets Available \n\n	\n	\n		\n		    \n        Blueprints For Registration 1.30.26 quantity    \n    -        \n        +\nYour browser must support JavaScript in order to purchase ticket(s).\n\n\n\n	\n	\n		\n			Attendee Information #1\n		\n		\n				\n		First Name:\n				*\n			\n	\n 	\n		Last Name:\n				*\n			\n	\n 	\n		AIA Designation:\n				*\n			\n	\n			AIA\n			Assoc.

SUMMARY:Blueprints for Leadership: Session #4
DESCRIPTION:Blueprints for Leadership: A Series of Workshops (2 LUs)	\n\n			Empowering Architects at Every Stage of Their Career	\n\n				\n	\n	Blueprints for Leadership is a dynamic series of workshops designed to help architects build essential skills in strategic thinking\, business acumen\, and effective management.

As architectural teams become more interdisciplinary\, fast-paced\, and relationship-driven\, soft skills and emotional intelligence are no longer optional – they’re core professional competencies. \n\n				\n	\n	This interactive session with Stacey Hiramoto\, SHRM-CP\, Senior HR Consultant\, with Hawaii Employers Council\, focuses on the people skills architects rely on every day: communicating clearly with clients and consultants\, navigating feedback and conflict\, recognizing bias\, and building trust within teams. Through practical examples rooted in real workplace scenarios\, participants will explore how emotional intelligence and effective communication support better collaboration\, stronger leadership\, and healthier firm environments. \n	Whether you’re an emerging professional\, project architect\, or firm leader\, this program provides tools to strengthen working relationships at every level and contribute to an Employer of Choice culture within architectural practice. \nParticipants will explore how to: \n\nUnderstand the role of emotional intelligence in architectural teams and leadership.\nApply effective communication fundamentals to improve collaboration with clients\, consultants\, and internal teams.\nRecognize and mitigate bias to support inclusive and respectful design environments.\nNavigate feedback\, conflict\, and difficult conversations common in project-driven work.\nBuild strong\, trust-based working relationships across disciplines and organizational levels.\nDevelop skills that reinforce a positive firm culture and help architecture practices attract and retain talent.\n\nCome ready to reflect\, engage\, and walk away with practical skills that can be used immediately in your work and team environments.\n	DATE: Friday\, February 27\nTIME: Workshop: 3:00 PM – 5:00 PM | Pau Hana: 5:00 PM – 6:00 PM\nWHERE: Center for Architecture\, 828 Fort Street Mall\, Suite 100\, Honolulu\nCOST: $75 (Includes workshop and Pau Hana networking)\nCEU: TBD\nPARKING: Click here for parking suggestions \n\n			RSVP for Blueprints session #4	\n			\n				\n\n	\n	\n		$75.00 \n Tickets Available \n\n	\n	\n		\n		    \n        Blueprints For Registration 2.27.26 quantity    \n    -        \n        +\nYour browser must support JavaScript in order to purchase ticket(s).\n\n\n\n	\n	\n		\n			Attendee Information #1\n		\n		\n				\n		First Name:\n				*\n			\n	\n 	\n		Last Name:\n				*\n			\n	\n 	\n		AIA Designation:\n				*\n			\n	\n			AIA\n			Assoc.

SUMMARY:Canceled! FEMA 2-Day Multi-Hazard Workshop
DESCRIPTION:CANCELLED FOR MARCH 12 &13!FEMA Building Science Branch\nHawaii 2-Day Multi-Hazard Construction Course / Maui Fires (DR-4724-HI) Multi-Hazard Construction Workshop\nFree | Open to AIA Honolulu Members | Max 30 Attendees | 13 HSW\n  \nThis 2-day workshop is intended for design professionals as well as builders and property managers to understand the basic principles of designing and constructing residential buildings in Hawaii for multi-hazard resilience. View Workshop Flyer. \nThis workshop is similar to the 2-day residential construction field course (NDEMU Course G0386) in that it addresses the design of coastal residences to resist coastal flood\, high wind\, and other hazards common to the Continental United States (CONUS) and constructed using traditional wood frame construction techniques. \nHowever\, this content of this workshop has been expanded to provide additional details on designing coastal flood\, high wind\, wildfire and other hazards unique to Hawaii and U.S. territories outside CONUS as they apply to island housing design and construction techniques. \nThe workshop also addresses lessons learned from FEMA’s Mitigation Assessment Team (MAT) investigation of the August 2023 Maui Fires (DR-4724-HI) that can be incorporated into rebuilding of fire-damaged residences on Maui as well as new construction in coastal areas throughout Hawaii. \nTwo-Day Workshop Overview\nTopics Covered – Day 1: Thursday\, Mar 12\, 8am-5pm\n\nUnit 1: Introduction and Course Overview (60 minutes)Unit 1 introduces participants\, review course objectives\, and discusses recent local hazard events in Hawaii and Maui and lessons learned from FEMA P-2425\, Maui Fires Mitigation Assessment Team (MAT) Compendium Report. The unit includes multiple-choice questions throughout that act as an introductory knowledge check.\nUnit 2: Overview of Building Design Concepts (75 minutes)This unit discusses the design concepts that define a successful building\, including continuous load path\, avoiding flood and resisting wind\, applying best practices\, understating hazard risk and risk tolerance\, and hazard mitigation. Unit 2 concludes with an analysis of a vacant lot that discusses many of the concepts covered in this unit.\nUnit 3: Identifying and Estimating Hazard Loads (195 minutes)Unit 3 provides details on identifying and estimating various hazard loads including gravity loads (dead\, live)\, flood loads (hydrostatic\, hydrodynamic\, debris impact\, waves)\, high wind loads\, and earthquake loads and how they apply to load path design and the building envelope. This unit includes several exercises including finding coastal flood information\, wind load and load path knowledge checks\, and identifying “what’s wrong with this picture?”\nUnit 4: Siting and Defensible Space (45 minutes)This unit discusses siting and defensible space actions that can minimize the risk of coastal flood\, high wind\, and wildfire hazards for coastal residence in Hawaii. Unit 4 concludes with a “what’s wrong with this picture?” exercise and discussion questions as knowledge checks\n\nTopics Covered – Day 2: Friday\, Mar 13\, 8am-5pm\n\nUnit 5: Roof Systems (90 minutes)Unit 5 reviews traditional and island housing roof systems\, and discusses how to protect roof system components from high wind and fire events in Hawaii. The unit contains knowledge checks including “what’s wrong with this picture?” images and multiple-choice questions.\nUnit 6: Walls\, Openings\, and Other Structural Elements (90 minutes)This unit reviews and discusses best practices for protecting exterior walls\, openings\, building utility systems\, and appurtenances from flood and wind events; with additional considerations for wildfire resilience. Unit 6 concludes with a “what’s wrong with this picture?” activity.\nUnit 7: Design and Construction of the Foundation (90 minutes)Unit 7 addresses various foundation types and requirements\, foundation loads\, design considerations and best practices for shallow and deep foundations. The unit contains knowledge checks including “what’s wrong with this picture?” images and multiple-choice questions.\nUnit 8: Maintaining the Building (45 minutes)This unit reviews general and specific maintenance techniques for residential coastal buildings in Hawaii\, discusses the implications of design choices on maintenance\, addresses maintenance versus retrofitting. Unit 8 includes “what went wrong?” images to reinforce maintenance concepts.\nUnit 9: Final Exam and Conclusion (90 minutes)Unit 9 includes a final exam followed by a review of course objectives. The unit concludes the workshop with a course evaluation and graduation.

SUMMARY:AIA Book Club: Nature Behind Barbed Wire
DESCRIPTION:Designing Conversations:AIA Hawai’i Book Club\nEach quarter\, we’ll gather around a book tangential to architecture-think design\, culture\, place\, history\, climate\, or the forces that shape the built environment in unexpected ways. The event features a compelling guest speaker who will draw out the book’s big ideas and connect them to practice in Hawaiʻi\, all hosted at a cool\, thoughtfully chosen venue. \nWhether you’ve read every page\, skimmed the introduction\, or are just coming for the conversation\, the AIA Hawaiʻi Book Club is about shared curiosity and expanding how we think about our work and our world. \nBook Club #1: At the Hawaii Plantation Village Mar 28!\n  \nFor our first Book Club\, we have chosen “Nature Behind Barbed Wire: An Environmental History of the Japanese American Incarceration” by Connie Chang. \nCopies of the book are available at the Center for Architecture for $25\, or via Amazon/the publisher. \nGood News: You do NOT have to read the book to attend. Join us for an engaging conversation designed for anyone curious about architecture and its broader context. \n\nOur first featured guest speaker will be Christine Ogura\, NPS Superintendent for the Honouliuli National Historic Site. \nOgura has worked for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for 14 years. She worked for the late U.S. Congresswoman Patsy T. Mink and for non-profits acquiring lands for the NPS and supported international conservation efforts in more than 10 countries.

Led by top experts in their fields\, each session offers premium instruction and meaningful networking opportunities. \n	Future sessions are still being finalized but may include topics on self-leadership\, leading high-performing teams\, project management\, personal branding\, and more! \nWhether you’re just starting out or looking to refine your leadership toolkit\, these sessions are crafted to support your growth. Attend one or attend them all-each workshop stands alone but together forms a comprehensive professional development experience. \n\n			#5 Blueprints for Legal & Ethical Decision-Making (2 HSW)	\n	As architects advance in their careers\, their role expands beyond design to include greater responsibility\, accountability\, and influence. Every decision-from communication to project execution-carries legal and ethical implications that impact both outcomes and professional reputation. \nThis session introduces emerging professionals to the legal and ethical foundations of practice through a leadership lens. Participants will explore the architect’s duty to protect public health\, safety\, and welfare\, and how that responsibility applies at all stages of their career. \nThrough real-world scenarios and discussion\, the session will examine common ethical challenges\, the role of contracts in defining expectations and risk\, and everyday situations where professional judgment is critical. It will also highlight often-overlooked risks-such as informal communication and undocumented decisions-and provide practical strategies to navigate them effectively. \n\n				\n	\n	Presenter: Bennett J. Chin is the Managing Partner of the Hawaiʻi office of GRSM in Honolulu. Bennett’s practice is primarily focused on representing and counseling architects and engineers.

SUMMARY:EDI Presentation with Mahlum Architects (HSW)
DESCRIPTION:An EDI Committee Presentation of the\n	Life Skills Training Center at Washington State School for the Blind\n\n	Our EDI Committee invites you to a hybrid session highlighting the Award-Winning Life Skills Center at the Washington State School for the Blind.  \n\n				\n	\n	Join us on Zoom or come to the CFA to watch our West-Coast-based speaker streamed live!\nHistorically\, people experiencing disability have been segregated and excluded from mainstream spaces. With nondisabled participants comprising the majority of most design teams\, there’s often a lack of inclusive practices that address the needs of those with varied sensory abilities.\nThis session will feature a case study of the new Life Skills Training Center at the Washington State School for the blind to provide practical insights and actionable strategies to enhance the accessibility and inclusivity of the built environment. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nExplore how varied sensory abilities impact the experience of the built environment\, resulting in spaces that undermine the health and well-being of under-supported individuals.\nExamine practices for engagement and critical dialogue facilitating an inclusive exploration of spaces\, including supporting the participation of individuals experiencing blindness or low vision.\nLearn how to articulate the amenities needed to equitably support the built environment and to identify resources and tools to support these spatial solutions.\nDiscover how broadening our design toolkit to include multisensory design strategies can create a built environment that better supports people experiencing disability.\n\nPresenter: Kim Olson\, AIA\, DBIA\, Principal\, Mahlum Architects\nJoining Mahlum in 2013\, Kim brings over 22 years of experience in the field of architecture. Kim has a passion for design that enriches the living\, learning\, and healing environments for all.\n\n				\n	\n	She takes pride in listening to the needs of all constituents through the design process\, and her work is rooted in the belief that buildings can support stronger communities when they explore and celebrate the rich diversity of the human condition. \nKim has a Masters Degree in Architecture from Tulane University\, and is a Registered Architect in Oregon. \n	AIA/CEU: This session qualifies for 1 AIA/CES LU (HSW) \nCOST: Select one of the below options at registration. \n\nFree for hybrid attendees and for anyone attending in‑person who does not want food or drinks\n$15 for in‑person attendees who would like food provided.\nA variety of bento boxes will be provided from Mamaya\n\nPARKING: Click here for parking suggestions. \n\n			rsvp for edi talk story below	\n			\n				\n\n	\n	\n		$0.00 – $15.00Price range: $0.00 through $15.00 \n\n\n	\n			\n			\n									\n						Ticket type\n						\n							Choose an optionOnline AttendeeIn-person (with meal)In-person (no meal)Clear						\n					\n							\n		\n		\n				\n		\n			\n	\n	    \n        EDI Presentation with Mahlum Arch quantity    \n    -        \n        +\nYour browser must support JavaScript in order to purchase ticket(s).\n\n\n\n	\n	\n		\n			Attendee Information #1\n		\n		\n				\n		First Name:\n				*\n			\n	\n 	\n		Last Name:\n				*\n			\n	\n 	\n		Firm/Organization:\n			\n	\n 	\n		AIA Membership:\n				*\n			\n	\n			Non-member\n			AIA\n			Assoc.

SUMMARY:AIA Book Club: Human Transit
DESCRIPTION:Designing Conversations:\nAIA Hawai’i Book Club (2 HSWs)\nEach quarter\, we’ll gather around a book tangential to architecture-think design\, culture\, place\, history\, climate\, or the forces that shape the built environment in unexpected ways. The event features a compelling guest speaker who will draw out the book’s big ideas and connect them to practice in Hawaiʻi\, all hosted at a cool\, thoughtfully chosen venue. \nWhether you’ve read every page\, skimmed the introduction\, or are just coming for the conversation\, the AIA Hawaiʻi Book Club is about shared curiosity and expanding how we think about our work and our world. \n\n			Book Club Q2: Human Transit	\n	For our second Book Club\, we have chosen “Human Transit: How clearer thinking about public transit can enrich our communities and our lives.” by Jarrett Walker. \nTransportation expert Jarrett Walker believes that transit can be simple\, if we focus on the underlying geometry that all transit systems share. \n\n				\n	\n	Suddenly\, public transit is a critical issue. For decades\, the private car has seemed the ideal tool for free and spontaneous travel\, and in rural areas and many small towns\, that will continue to be true. But all over the world\, people are moving into cities\, and great cities just don’t have room for everyone’s car. Meanwhile\, the converging threats of climate change and the end of cheap oil are forcing a new assessment of how cities work. Public transit-the most efficient mode for moving large numbers of people long distances across cities-is an essential tool in that effort. \n	Where to get the book? You can find the book at your local library\, bookstore or online. \nGood News: You do NOT have to read the book to attend. Join us for an engaging conversation designed for anyone curious about architecture and its broader context. \n\n				\n	\n	The discussion will be led by Jon Nouchi\, Director of Transit\, who focuses on advancing Honolulu’s multimodal transit system\, including Skyline\, TheBus\, Handi-Van\, and Biki. \nNouchi brings nearly 30 years of transportation experience in Hawaiʻi. In his new role\, he will oversee transit planning\, operations\, and system integration as Skyline continues to expand as a core part of the island’s transportation network. \n	When: June 27 from 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM\nWhere: UH West Oahu\, Center for Creative Media\nCEU: This session qualifies for 2 AIA/CES (HSW)\nCost: Free\nParking: Free\n\n			Taking the Skyline	\n			\n							Park-and-Ride\n					\n			\n							How to Ride Skyline\n					\n			\n							Fares\n					\n			\n							Google Maps Route\n					\n\n				\n	\n\n				\n	\n	\n                \n                        \n                            RSVP for Book Club #2\n                             \n							"*" indicates required fields \n                        \n                        Name*\n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    First\n                                                \n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    Last\n                                                \n                            \n                        AIA DesignationAIAAssoc.

SUMMARY:Architect Insight Session: Hawaiʻi's Local Wood Economy
DESCRIPTION:Architect Insight Session: Hawaiʻi’s Local Wood Economy (HSW)	\n\n			Virtual Discussion | June 30 | 1.0 HSW	\n	How can Hawaiʻi make better use of the trees and wood materials already within our communities?\n\n				\n	\n	Join representatives from the Hawaiʻi Department of Land and Natural Resources Division of Forestry and Wildlife (DOFAW) and Unified Wood Economy (UWE) for a virtual discussion focused on gathering insight and lived experience from architects and design professionals about the opportunities and challenges surrounding local wood resources. \nUWE has been engaged by DOFAW to assess Hawaiʻi’s urban wood biomass and explore pathways toward a more circular\, locally based wood economy. As part of this work\, they are seeking input from professionals across the building industry to better understand existing systems\, barriers\, and opportunities related to: \n\nSalvaged urban and near-urban trees\nReclaimed and deconstructed building materials\nLocal wood products and supply chains\nMaterial specification and procurement challenges\nOpportunities for greater use of Hawaiʻi-grown and recovered wood products in design and construction\n\nFor architects\, local wood presents exciting possibilities as a material that reflects place and culture-from custom millwork and furnishings to specialty finish applications and feature installations. Yet many challenges remain\, including inconsistent supply\, limited processing infrastructure\, material certification concerns\, and procurement hurdles. \nThis session is intended as a conversation rather than a presentation. UWE is in an active information-gathering phase and is looking to learn from practitioners who have attempted to specify\, source\, salvage\, reuse\, or advocate for local wood materials in Hawaiʻi projects. Whether your experience has been successful\, challenging\, or simply exploratory\, your perspective can help inform a broader understanding of the current landscape. \n	\n                \n                        \n                            2026 AIA & UWE Discussion\n                             \n                        \n                        Name(Required)\n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    First\n                                                \n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    Last\n                                                \n                            \n                        AIA DesignationNon-memberAIAAssoc.

SUMMARY:AIA Book Club: What If We Get It Right
DESCRIPTION:Designing Conversations:\nAIA Hawai’i Book Club (2 HSWs)\nEach quarter\, we’ll gather around a book tangential to architecture-think design\, culture\, place\, history\, climate\, or the forces that shape the built environment in unexpected ways.
