Architecture Days

As part of the design season Swedish Secrets, Architects Sweden is organising a series of discussions between Swedish and French architects at the Institut Suédois. They will be talking about and comparing the challenges they face in their work and presenting the solutions they have found.

These discussions focus on the processes that lie behind planning and architecture projects rather than their outcomes. They will concentrate on the thinking that goes into these projects, work methods, the cooperation required between multi-disciplinary teams, and problems encountered along the way. The central role of architects in initiating and driving projects means that they can talk about the different ways in which the teams move forward.
