EARTH: A Multistory salon

About EARTH:

There is an emerging ecological concern in design and architecture with the earthly nature of materials and places, one that opposes the destructive extractivist ethos of the Anthropocene. Re-engaging with the EARTH offers a more environmentally tuned approach, enables exploring the politics of the ground beneath our feet, but also raises questions about the challenges of redesigning our relationship with the planet.

Speakers:

  • Annebella Pollen, design historian
  • Bas Van Abel, creative entrepreneur and inventor of the Fairphone
  • Karin Reisinger, architecture research
  • Local Works, design, build and research studio
