Talk: A Place Together

AF-AD Talk 9 July
Where are we now? Where are we going? How are we going to get there? In a discussion chaired by architect Piers Taylor, policy advisor Gwen Buck and Architects’s Declare steering group members engineer Clara Bagenal George and architect Peter Clegg will discuss what the Architect’s Declare pledge has achieved one year on, what needs to change in terms of policy, why it is so hard to make genuinely low carbon buildings – and what zero carbon means in any case. And, what of that airport that Zaha Hadid Architects have taken on? Join some of the UK’s leading environmental thinkers and join in the discussion to help Architects Declare understand what else needs to be tackled, as we career ever deeper into a pre-apocalyptic climate emergency.

The New Normal
Piers Taylor will be talking about his reflections on lockdown, why architecture and architectural practice needs to become more resilient and free itself from its relationship with power and money, why urban conglomerations are still our best hope, why we need to separate food production from agriculture, why institutions don’t work, why we are all still citizens of everywhere and much more.
