worKonference @ SG2010 亚洲建筑研讨会2010
8th mAAN International Event, co-organised by mAAN & re:ACT
July 2010 (tentative)
EVENT TITLE: worKonference @SG2010 亚洲建筑研讨会2010
Asia Diversified l Modernity Modified l Possibilities Multiplied
Singapore is currently at the forefront of a fertile, transnational convergence of architects, urban designers, and global cultures emerging out of and working with Asia. At the same time, Singapore is home to many of the world’s largest and most diverse Asian heritage communities. The juxtaposition in the same urban environment of places with distinct cultural identities and of constructed, cosmopolitan cityscapes generates tensions between the built and the lived environments, between the design of iconic structures and the living vitality of public spaces.
worKonference@SG2010 seeks to explore different responses to the challenges inherent in the design, use of space and the construction, protection and preservation of identity in a global city such as Singapore.
It will feature an international competition, a public exhibition, an interactive workshop, conference and public forum attended by professionals, community leaders, and academics in the architecture/ urban-planning/ development field. There will also be an emphasis on creating real-world impact.
