Organized by the Professorship of Architecture and Design this two-day conference featured 15 international speakers from the fields of Architecture, Design, and Landscape Architecture. They discussed Bioregionalism through the presentation of artifacts in the built environment, material futures, and design systems. The aim was to bring together a peer community interested in knowledge production through practice-based research and design prototypes, leading towards a transformation for a regenerative future in the built environment.

As a kick-off event, Prof. Yoshiharu Tsukamoto (Atelier Bow-Wow)  gave a keynote lecture on 11 September at 6 pm.
