• encouraging a culture and community of open dialogue, inquiry, creativity, and critical **exchange**;
• fostering **development** and propagation of ideas and applications that align with BBB's practice and culture.
RED launched in 2015 with an inaugural firm-wide program to support innovative ideas that have the potential to positively disrupt BBB's practice - how we work and how we design. The popular RED Research Award program sponsored three consecutive cycles of staff research. Research topics have ranged from conceptual ideas and social issues to material, fabrication, and technology, including , , , and , as well as , an ongoing research project on American Postmodern Architecture that includes the creation of a searchable PoMo database.
More recently, RED has focused on an innovative array of firm-wide programs organized around two main initiatives - **training opportunities** in software and emerging technologies, and **staff field trips** to fabrication studios citywide. Highlights of RED's training initiatives and field trips include:
**VR/AR**
BBB RED hosted a **VR/AR Showcase Presentation and Vendor Demo** featuring Enscape, Kurbity, InsiteVR and Modelo; hosted multiple **VR/AR Training Sessions** with various software; and sponsored an interactive **VR/AR Competition** that elevated BBB staff's acuity with state-of-the-art VR/AR technology, ever more essential as the AEC industry embraces hybrid design processes in the wake of Covid-19.
BBB The 4-week VR/AR Competition challenged BBB staff in all three offices to construct a 3D space in which to hide an object to be discovered by other participants, with the final deliverables in Revit 2019. A **VR/AR Game Night and Competition Showcase** celebrated the winning submission and showcased BBB staff's ingenious VR/AR efforts.
**3D Printing**
BBB , BBB's Senior Model Shop Coordinator in New York, led a **3D Printing Showcase Presentation** and multiple **3D Printing Training Sessions**-workshops utilizing our model shop's Ultimaker 3D printer, where staff brought their ideas into built form to celebrate the holiday season.
BBB To further explore different machines and techniques during the **RED 3D Printing Challenge**, BBB DC staff toured ABC Imaging's DC fabrication shop. The group discussed strategies to best prepare models for printing and viewed the outputs of different models from FDM, resin, and powder printers. The 6-week 3D Printing Challenge culminated in a holiday party showcase of more than fifty inspired ornaments artfully 3D-printed by BBB staff. Read more & view the 3D printed pendants in the BBB Story.
**RED Demos Webinar Series**
Currently RED is hosting the **RED Demos Webinar Series** to enable the offices to engage in relevant conversations related to remote work due to COVID. Some of these lunchtime discussions address everyday technologies, like Webex, Teams, Bluebeam Studio, whiteboard apps and other digital tools that allow for collaboration and increased productivity. These mini tips-and-tricks sessions are run as informal shadow sessions and memorialized for continued training on staff-access RED TV.
**Fab Trips**
