Join us for the second topic of the 2021 Global Architecture. Exchanges series: The future of cities – Revitalising/reimagining cities post-COVID.
Have cities become obsolete? Is there a need to rethink our cities and manage future pandemics?
How to design cities that are more multi-functional; provide good quality of life for residents (better places to live and work); are inclusive to all groups in society; and built for the future instead of for the upcoming decade.
How has the pandemic affected the way we experience, think and design public spaces? How can we move biodiversity into designing cities that are more inclusive with nature?
Join us and hear the answers to these questions from architects from around the world through the Global Architecture Exchanges Topic 2 – The future of cities – Revitalising/reimagining cities post-COVID.
