Mobility is a central issue in inquiries and research regarding cities and urbanization processes.

With this in mind, and in conjunction with the curriculum of the "Mobility and the Contemporary City" postgraduate program, the online debate series "Mobility in Times of Crisis: The Challenges and the New Future of Urban Mobility Amidst Political, Economic, Social, and Health Crises" will take place.

The appearance and long-term maintenance of a work of architecture or interior design are heavily dictated by its materiality and the products used. If the selection of materials and products is not precise, the project can be compromised both aesthetically and functionally.

But is material specification done similarly across all architecture firms? Do the initial and final stages of the project receive the same attention? How close is the relationship between architects and materials, really?
