Symposium: Grounded Futures – Architecture Beyond Standardisation, 8 September 13:15–16:30

This half-day event will bring together architects, students, and researchers to explore how we can move towards more sustainable building practices while embracing the unique possibilities that new digital tools and methods afford.

Beige text, Grounded Futures Architecture beyond standardisation, against dark green background. Illustration.

We will discuss how architecture can go beyond standardisation — by working with local and unprocessed resources, reuse and recycling, and by developing digital approaches that allow for complexity, uniqueness, and local adaptation.

The event will take place in Exhibition Hall, A-building, Klas Anshelms väg 16, Lund, 13:15–16:30.
Open event – welcome!
