AA Lecture Hall
Distillation of Architecture: 家具 is an exhibition of four new commissions that reimagine furniture and domestic structures to demonstrate how our living spaces can be transformed through architectural and material thinking.
The symposium will begin with a conversation spanning the history of more than 30 years of collaboration between the AA and Maeda on educational and experimental workshops, building projects, field research and exhibitions. The afternoon will be an opportunity to hear from the four Japanese design teams as they present the work on show in the exhibition and reflect on their working methods and inspirations.
The symposium will be followed by the Distillation of Architecture: 家具 exhibition opening from 6.30pm onwards in the AA Lecture Hall, Gallery and Front Members’ Room.
