Join us for a panel discussion which considers whether multiple identities in buildings can coexist?

Following the increasing need for buildings to be reused, recycled or repurposed, how do strong architectural identities remain? How do buildings influence their future use?

This event is an opportunity to discuss how buildings are being designed, built, used and subsequently reused. To consider the impact on communities and to critically explore the need to future-proof design alongside being creative users of space.

A range of voices from architects and designers to the communities users of spaces are included on the panel.

Alex Lifshutz, is an architect exploring adaptive architecture from a design perspective, thinking about how spaces are designed and future-proofed.
