Dialogue with Architect – Studio visit with the WKCD conceptual plan consultant-architects
The “Dialogue with Architect” is the discussion forums which provides a supportive environment for conversation and dialogue with experts from different professions such as urban and town planning, environmental conservation, cultural conservation and so on. The emphasis is on sharing of ideas because we believe this is the spark that ignites the thinking needed to deliver the most creative solutions.
We have invited designers, architects and arts and cultural practitioners from Foster + Partners’ and also professions in different areas to discuss what we are expecting toward our Cultural District and how we can realize it.
Register Now! There are only 50 seats for each session! Refreshments will be served.
