Architecture Competition 
"The Cabin Festival," between Architecture and Landscape, 11th Edition -
Open to Architects and Architecture Students
From January 1 to March 23, 2026

In 2026, the annual Paul Mellon Lecture will be given by architect and urban conservationist Brinda Somaya. Drawing on decades of experience, she will explore the idea that architecture is not just about buildings and aesthetics but also about people, politics and social responsibility.

This exhibition is part of the Advanced Architectural Design and Development studio by graduate students of the Master of Architecture in Architectural Design (International Program), Department of Architecture, Faculty of Architecture, Chulalongkorn University, collaborated with Bangkok Design Week. The design brief began with the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA)’s projects in 2024—such as the redesign of the city’s identity system and the launch of a new landmark billboard in the city center—which are part of a broader effort to “rebrand” the city.

LVIV BUILD FORUM is a professional event for architects, urbanists, developers, and investors focused on shaping high-quality, responsible, and sustainable built environments in Ukrainian cities.
The Forum creates a space for meaningful professional dialogue between the architectural community and key stakeholders of the construction process — those who directly influence the character of cities, their development scenarios, and the quality of everyday life. At the core of the discussions is the role of architecture as a driver of systemic change: from residential and public spaces to complex urban and infrastructure solutions.

This year’s lecture series CRAFT&CARE at IE School of Architecture and Design, curated by Grazielle Bruscato, invites students to reflect on how making, maintaining and repairing—across architecture, fashion and design—can be a transformative practice of attention, commitment and responsibility. The series highlights the resurgence of craft as both contemporary practices and cultural heritage, celebrating voices from across the globe, embracing diverse material traditions and design processes, and affirming care as a transversal force that fosters well-being, social cohesion and ecological sustainability.

Otto Wagner (1841–1918) is one of the internationally most influential figures of early modern architecture. Many of his buildings – for instance, the Vienna City Railway, the Postal Savings Bank and the Church at Steinhof – are now considered key works of twentieth-century architecture because they shed their historical stylistic trappings and speak instead a language appropriate to “modern life”, based on purpose, materials, and construction.
