Date: 19 November 2018
Time: 6.30-8.30pm Venue: Future Cities Catapult, 1 Sekforde Street, London EC1R 0BE Quantifying, calculating and managing risk is an essential part of an architect’s work, both in terms of design as well as day-to-day running of their practices. How does this constant need to evaluate risk impact architecture practice? Does it hinder creativity and potential for innovation, limiting the work of architects? What are the benefits of taking risks and what does risk-taking in the design profession actually mean? The last talk in the series, this session will explore the impact of risk society on the way architects approach their work. The question that this talk seeks to answer is whether the anxiety and desire to minimise risk is limiting the role of the architect, ultimately putting the architectural profession at risk. This talk is kindly hosted by Future Cities Catapult at the Urban Innovation Centre. |
