Keynote - Catalysing the Change to a Regenerative Future
09/29/24 • 48 min
As an industry we have focussed for decades on reducing operational carbon in our buildings and the tools and methods are well understood. But what does the reduction in CO2 emissions from our power grid mean for our processes and the way we design our buildings and is it a catalyst for a different way of thinking? Do we need to rethink and assess things differently? How do we catalyse a change to a future where we look beyond being less bad and start to think in terms of the regeneration of our environment.
Speaker - Patrick Bellew, Founder and Executive Chairman, Atelier Ten
Chair - Paul Finch, Programme Director, World Architecture Festival

Presentation - When is Enough, Enough? The Performance of Measurement
Buildings and the built environment are designed and constructed according to measurable, quantifiable and gradable standards, yet a community’s interaction with their environment is not measured, or indeed measurable in this way. From Le Corbusier's 'Ineffable space' to Louis Kahn's 'Unmeasurable' criteria for great buildings, we continue this architectural pursuit to connect the intangible with the most urgent tangibles of contemporary everyday lives. We look to ask if architecture and design can move the needle on the public’s sense of agency, attachment, attraction, connection, freedom and inclusion.
