RIBA Research Symposium 2009
Now in its fourth year, and following the success of last year’s Space at Home, the RIBA Research Symposium 2009 Changing Practice turns its attention to the subject of the profession itself at a time when architects have had to look at and question the ways in which they operate.
The keynote will be delivered by Anne Lacaton of Parisian practice Lacaton and Vassal, winner of the 2008 French Grand Prix National de l’Architecture, best known for their projects that extend the social and economic frontiers of architecture.
