"Towards a well tempered Architecture"
Roundtable with: Baumschlager & Eberle (architects, Austria) /
Françoise Fromonot (architect and critic, France) / Gabu Heindl
(architect, Austria) / Jochen Käferhaus (consulting engineer,
Austria) / Arjen Oosterman (editor-in-chief of Volume Magazine, The
Netherlands) / Nasrine Seraji (architect, France) a.o.
Ecological issues give back credibility and expertise to architects;
maybe they even make us be loved again. Why? Perhaps because they are scientific, measurable and evaluative. Ecological topics raise
awareness, win competitions, and attract large investments, as
reports on CO2 emission and climate catastrophes capture worldwide news. Thus it is time to reflect on ecology: what is the "reality of
ecology", as opposed to current "images of ecology"? And how many
realities are there anyway?
How can we rethink sustainability on organisational, programmatic, political, urban and regional levels?
