Place

Garage Screen summer cinema

DESCRIPTION

Yuri Grigoryan and Anna Trapkova will discuss the means of representing oneself and the cultural notions determined by the time, through architecture.

The first couple of speakers will touch upon the image of architecture today—whether it is a complex category, embracing a diversity of aspects, such as space, function, budgets, politics, aesthetics and personal matters. They will also explain why it is vitally important to share one’s professional skills and knowledge in the sphere you love; will trace back the process of project development, from the initial concept to the final completion; and what an architect could compromise while working with a client.
