Flexible Systems & Wooden Constructions for Challenging Environments

Digital Fabrication Between Research and Practice

1286 project from 1308 students from all over the world competed in the largest architectural competition Inspireli Awards and now the finalists have been chosen in all three categories – Architecture, Interior design and Urban design.

We would like to invite you to our second event in collaboration with The Developer UK, a publication for enlightened real estate developers working in the private and public sector along with their investors, local government, architects, placemakers and project teams.

Material Responsibility discusses issues of contemporary material fabrication in context to social, environmental, and construction related challenges. Researchers, designers, and builders assume the mantle of responsibility to address inherited legacies in everyday practices. This event tries to unravel not only assumptions about what and how we build, but also looks to question why, to situate our motivations and impact. In moving away from practices that simply justifies the present moment, the discussion on Material Responsibility aims to identify where our responsibilities lie in the complex global systems and networks that make up our contemporary practice.
