A seminar projected to everyone interested in creative and sustainable architecture and urban design whether in universities, public administration or private companies.
The central theme of the happening is to examine the relationship between utopian thinking in sustainable urban design and the possibilities of practically realising some of these dreams. The happening is part of the interdisciplinary Creative Sustainability Program at Aalto University.
Our guests are director Peter Head from the global consulting firm Arup (www.arup.com), a leader in sustainable urban consultation, Will Alsop (www.rmjm.com), one of the UK's more "radical" practitioners and teachers of architecture and Mladen Jadric (www.jadricarchitects.com), a pioneering architect and teacher from Vienna, and Ton Venhoeven (www.venhoevencs.nl), National Government advisor on Infrastructure in
the Netherlands.
Chair: prof. Trevor Harris and senior lecturer Antti Ahlava / Aalto University Urban Design
