Description
Cafx 2017 Conference: 'Architecture as Character'. Panel debate participant under the theme Cinematix Matrix.Architecture has character. It is nearly always a set assignment meant to achieve a specific goal and solve a particular task. Architecture is subject to functions, programs, financial frameworks, and regulatory restrictions – as well as other external requirements and expectations. But architecture is also part of our common cultural horizons. Good architecture may overcome restrictive external requirements and satisfy more interests than those which were initially sought. The design may serve additional purposes and be relevant in a wider than expected context. Even as a ruin.
As a part of the city’s year as host of the European Capital of Culture, the Aarhus Architecture Festival (AAFx) conference, Architecture as Character, is envisioned to debate and reflect on how architectural character forms our culture, identity and awareness.
