Ong Siew May Distinguished Lecture Series 2008 | "Sustainability" featuring Rick Joy of Rick Joy Studio
31 Oct . 4–6pm . NUS
What is sustainability?
What are we sustaining?
Who is being sustained?
Can architecture be sustainable?
The 2008 Ong Siew May Distinguished Lectures are a series of conversations that move interior and exterior to the realm of architecture, landscape, and design. Probing into nature, density, tectonics, environment, growth, urbanism, and craft.
Architecture's complex relationship with its ability to sustain is brought to bear. These four distinct lectures will open up, challenge, and enrich the way we think through sustainability; to challenge our assumptions of architecture and its seeming ability to change our environment. Come join us while we look closer, think more carefully, and ask even more questions.
