Co-existance
The last session of the Conference Program is focused on co-existence, on architecture as a frame for rich encounters between different users and communities. If the last decades have been defined by a strong sense of fragmentation among us — a direct consequence of both capitalism and neo-liberalism all around —, it seems that now there is the will to face together the challenges of our time. Our guests are Wilfried Kuehn, co-founder of Berlin-based practice Kuehn Malvezzi, and Clara Simay, co-founder of the Paris-based cooperative Grand Huit. Both guests will introduce specific projects where they have been able to act as designers, facilitators and mediators: from the world’s first house of prayer for three religions to an urban polyculture farm for economic integration and accommodation of vulnerable people.
