Introducing our BE-AM 2023 keynote speakers: Lidia Ratoi (University of Hong Kong) will give a lecture on The Art of Compromise.
The lecture will focus on the environmental, social and political implications related to the process of building large scale projects, in both high dense urban landscapes, as well as traditional or natural environments. Focusing on the intersection between state-of-the-art research and real-life necesities of both human and non-human inhabitants, the presentation questions who are all the actors involved and how to design and build in response to their tangible needs. Showcasing projects from Chinese provinces such as Xi’an and Guizhou, as well as Hong Kong, it will focus on responding on immediate realities while creating strategies for the future of the built environment.
