- Architecture can't ignore the realities of climate change. For time-tested solutions that perform under extreme conditions, designer Alyssa-Amor Gibbons says we should look to traditional buildings. Taking us to her home of Barbados, where the hurricane season is unforgiving and freak storms are becoming more frequent, Gibbons points to the brilliance of endemic designs that are built to work with nature -- rather than against it.

I'm currently watching CBC... this young lady is phenomenal...stay strong...we r proud of you❤❤🇧🇧🇧🇧🇧🇧
Same here
Me too. Was compelled to watch this TED talk. Was totally worth it!
I came to search for her after watching CBC as well. Very timely and a reality check!
I am here watching this on Mon, 1 July 2024. The day where the eye of Hurricane Beryll barely passed us in Barbados, but caused so much destruction to our sister islands.
Alyssa, I don't know if you are seeing this but thank you for your TED talk. It hit home more than ever before.
Thank you.
Woman I am giving you a big big virtual hug from Barbados. I'm so proud of you taking the world stage with confidence, intelligence and power. Big accomplishments all around you. What you are doing both on TED and in your career is empowering ❤❤❤
This is my awesome cousin!!! ❤❤❤ To imagine we grew up in the same house and now she's giving a TED talk, I'm so damn proud
Phoenix-area company uses foam to build houses as material costs rise
WATCH: This man built a home of the future using trash from the past | 60 Minutes Australia
So proud of this Barbadian daughter of the soil
Open up your Life and live Symbiotically! Building the Future from the Past in the Present . Well done
This was a great talk. Bending, not breaking. It's like earthquake-proofing skyscrapers in California. There's a bridge in Rochester, NY that does this bending to withstand traffic and wind.
Excellent information! Are you from Rochester, or was this just a piece of prior knowledge?
Everything about this talk is sheer brilliance and I will be using it in my classroom. Historically grounded, politically fearless, well-written and delivered. This is the best of us. Thank you so much!
Well done, Ms. Gibbons! Proud to have you deliver those truths and speak on our behalf! Iza Bajan too!!!
Excellent! Thank you! So full of emotion yet hitting back with pragmatism, lived experience and good science. I salute you and your work.
This is by far the best TEDTalk I have ever heard! Thank you Alyssa-Amor Gibbons. Your are God's design for such a time as this. God bless you.
Amazing! Great talk and this hits home for me.
Wonderful work to combine the elements of nature to make homes..👏🏻
That was so brilliant!
Awesome presentation ❤. I am super proud of you. Continue to soar...the sky is your limit🎉🎉🎉🎉
Great talk. All the best for your future endeavors.
With loads of love
Awesome talk
Absolutely brilliant! You are truly an inspiration.
Spoke so eloquently! Absolutely love this. ❤❤🇧🇧🇧🇧🇧🇧
Great talk!
Very nice Alyssa, thank you. Hopefully we can and will build back better... 🇧🇧🙏🏼
Thank you, for your, knowing sharing 🐺❤️
don't fight against nature,
accept nature
Just like log cabins a house on the move. Craftsmanship is not low tech. Go with the flow! MWM
Live in a land locked locating in the middle of U.S. I am thankful I don't have to survive hurricanes anymore, however we do experience for weeks at a time , 80-120mph wind on clear days, they call them land hurricanes here, and when accompanied with rain it will destroy
Super awesome!!!
Wow! Would love to work alongside her.
WOW WOW WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am totally lost for words.
Hmm, could the wind be funnelled through the sacrificial corridor to blow against the wind dampening it at critical locations? I guess you'd need concrete or some such for the funnel though.
Actually, what it it were angled up? would it push the building down and possibly redirect some of the wind up?

Intelligent insights
When Tensegrity Structures/Buildings?
👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
So the solution to build a hurricane resistant building is to just make windows with diagonal inlet openings to let the wind pass through? What about build houses with bricks instead of wood?
Could you listen to the talk this time and try not to miss the point...again?
🙏
Wonderful you have turned to your ancestors
Brilliant presentation of desperately needed architectural responses to our destructive weather events that are destroying lives and homes all over our world.

we also need to plant and use lots more bamboo,,

It's a great idea to build climate resistant buildings, but it would be better to build a better planned World with less inequality, more Justice and compassion for the life and wellbeing of everyone, by stopping the carnage and robbery of the weakest, we are not animals. Act like the humans you are and end all slaughter and manage the World better and in peace. 💚💚💚💚💚💚
Animals don't deserve to be mistreated and slaughtered either geez.
Well done, Alyssa-Amor! As a fellow Bajan I am so proud of you. Great poise and confidence! Excellent content and delivery!❤❤
🙏🏻🌹✨🙏🏻
wasn't blinds designed like that already existed for decades ?

Who understood that speech If someone is to understand you Will put a like
She spoke slowly, deliberately, firmly and clearly. Normally we Islanders speak very quickly and eat our words. She kept the audience fixated on her as she relayed her message.
TED used to be a lot more interesting when it did not feel the need to have every presenter have a woke angle.
What does woke even mean?
@@shizuwolf Means all the hand-wringing and pearl-clutching about some supposed worthy cause except it does more harm than good
@@rasalghul9331 so when are you going to give an actual answer?
@@shizuwolf If you can't elevate your level of comprehension, you will never understand. I can only lower my diction for you so far!
@@rasalghul9331 so going by your definition, MLK and such were doing more harm than good?
