In the face of environmental upheaval, political turmoil and unprecedented health crises, architects are being challenged to adapt like never before. They must now react not only to the needs of clients, but also to climate change, socio-political turbulence and the ever-changing needs of vulnerable communities. How can architecture be a force for good in our ever-changing world?<\/p>\n

During Future Fest<\/a>, we\u2019ll be asking some of the world\u2019s best architects, each one an A+Award-winning designer<\/a>, for their answers to this question and more. They\u2019ll offer insights on the future of architecture at every scale: From the design of cities and environments, to buildings of all typologies, to the material details that bring architecture to life.<\/p>\n
