Introduction to Today's Themes

05/06/2025

 

Day 2 Morning: The World of Work, Sustainability, Infrastructure and Social Change

Major office developments, infrastructure that refers to local tradition or the natural world, and workplace design that responds to – and triggers – social change. Plus an energy efficient building which is itself a green manifesto.

Day 2 Afternoon: Culture, Craft, Tradition vs Modernity in the City and the Country, Materials and Process at the Heart of Community

Two cultural buildings that lift the spirit and drive behaviour, referring to nature and classical architecture. Local craftsmanship and wellbeing in form and materials; rural designs integrate art, architecture and nature.
