The Thematic Exhibition
Transformations
The 2010 World Architecture Festival thematic exhibition will be based on the theme of ‘Transformations’. The 2010 theme will relate to the way in which the built environment can be transformed by a combination of client commitment, architectural imagination, technological development and professional teamwork.
Case studies from around the world will illustrate different aspects of transformation, including:
- Creative re-use and adaptation of single buildings and/or groups of buildings
- Regeneration of declining places and spaces within cities
- Technology transfer where lessons from other fields are applied to the built environment
- Climate - change initiatives to protect or enhance existing environments
- Social change represented in new buildings and places
- Economic growth and change helped by creative architecture and planning
Case studies will be picked from around the world; the exhibition will include filmed interviews with participants, who will also contribute to the Festival seminar programme. The exhibition will be located in the Festival Hall, an ideal location for manufacturers and cities to exhibit the approaches they are taking to the need for intelligent change at every scale of architecture.
