Reboot the informal towards a new Architecture (Lecture by Alfredo Brillembourg)

September 1 (4 pm, Melbourne time)

Abstract

This lecture will present the Urban Think Tank toolbox, which provides a working method for a new supportive architecture that empowers people at the margins of the global south’s emerging cities and promotes sustainable development in informal areas. The broad goal is to eliminate the disconnect between design and its social impact and initiate a global discussion of the future role of architecture.
