This symposium explores concerns central to the history and theory of architecture today. Formed around three panels featuring invited speakers and contributions from the cohort, the event addresses the missing links in relationships between histories, theories, and the practice of architecture; architecture and related disciplinary fields; and the voices, bodies, and stories omitted from the canon.
Since its inception, UNStudio has been known as a speculative practice, producing real world projects through the means of research, experimentation, testing, and conceptual frameworks.
This exhibition demonstrates how the principles of the circular economy can help create more sustainable, net zero architecture for the future.

‘Inside Iconic Houses’ at Case Study House #26
The "River Somes" exhibition is one of the events included in this year's Lisbon Architecture Triennale. It focuses in a large-scale river regeneration project that the Madrid-based firm PRÁCTICA is carrying out in the city of Cluj-Napoca, in Romania. This project consists in the redesign of the River Somes waterfronts along a 15-km section of its course through the city of Cluj. It includes a large number of bridges, squares, parks, public spaces, pedestrian paths and bike lanes, and it's scheduled for completion in mid-2023. The curators of the 2022 Lisbon Architecture Triennale, Cristina Veríssimo and Diogo Burnay, have selected the River Somes project to be features in this year's exhibition, titled "Terra", due to the international interest it is receiving, as well as for its relationship to the event's main themes.
DC SCHOOL OF ARCHITECTURE & DESIGN, VAGAMON CONDUCTS 65TH YEAR ZONAL NASA CONVENTION
World Cities Day ends Urban October, a month to promote urban issues and solutions, on 31 October each year. It was first celebrated in Shanghai, China in 2014.
With Neri&Hu Design and Research Office, the Chinese avantgarde in architecture, research and teaching, product and interior design has arrived in Europe. In the exhibition Reflective Nostalgia, Lyndon Neri and Rossana Hu are convincing in the way they examine the historical and the contemporary as well as the listed and the everyday and to transform them into new uses in a respectful and future-oriented manner. In addition to their numerous conversions and new buildings in Asia, such as residential and office buildings, theatres, shops or, for example, a chapel and a whisky distillery, the exhibition also shows projects from Europe, including a restaurant in Paris, a hotel in London and the expansion of the creative quarter Cologne-Ehrenfeld with an office building. Neri&Hu also design products and showrooms for international companies, thus demonstrating their diverse skills and the quality of their work in all scales and disciplines. With design confidence, they create exciting, sometimes surprising spatial constellations – from found and recycled materials or building parts of the respective location and by adding new elements. Historicising set pieces are omitted, while the charm and character of the 'old' remains legible and tangible and thus identity-forming in Neri&Hu's positive reinterpretation of the nostalgic. Their transdisciplinary design approach is in the DNA of the studio. As early as 2004, they were co-founders of Design Republic, a multidisciplinary design platform in Shanghai. The success of the broad spectrum of their work is reflected in numerous international awards. They currently teach at the Yale School of Architecture and the Harvard Graduate School of Design. Rossana Hu was also appointed Chair of the Department of Architecture at Tongji University in Shanghai in 2021. The exhibition installation features architectural models, photographs and videos, as well as a selection of furniture. Neri&Hu's alternative reading of historical contexts, including all the contradictions and details, as well as the unexpected spatial compositions with which they respond to them in a magnificent way, can be experienced.

Too much, too little, all at once. Too dirty, too salty, way too expensive. Water is an issue, if not the issue, for the present and future of our cities. Throughout our ten years practice, we addressed water issues with urban design, in projects across Europe, Asia, and Africa.
