Past event

David Gianotten is a managing director of the worldwide OMA architectural practice founded by Rem Koolhaas. He is based in Hong Kong and leads OMA in the Asia Pacific region. He’ll be drawing on research he did for the Venice Architecture Biennale, talking about why it’s important to immerse yourself in a city in order to appropriately design for its culture. The new edition of Assemble Papers, which talks about some of these issues, will be released at the end of this event.

Hosted by Virginia Trioli.

A good event starts great conversations. Here’s your chance to stay back a while and meet guest speakers.
