From 19–21 March, Architektūros fondas is organising an international three-day symposium on circular design, featuring a conference and an accompanying art programme. By linking critical discourse in urbanism and architecture with artistic practices, the symposium 'What Goes Around Comes Around' approaches circular design not only as a strategy for the reuse of spaces and materials, but also as a way to rethink value, labour, energy and continuity over time.
The conference 'Building with Time' taking place this Friday and can also be followed online. More about the conference:
Contemporary architecture increasingly operates under conditions shaped by investment-driven development and rapidly changing lifestyles. In this context, the capacity to transform the urbanised environment becomes critically important. Yet transformation itself can take many different forms – from careful maintenance and adaptive reuse to partial modifications or complete reconstruction.
