BIG Architecture 09

Spring 2009 sees Zavod Big host its annual architectural conference, this year entitled ‘Sustainable Excellence’. As issues surrounding quality, sustainability and responsibility become increasingly central – not only to architecture but to every creative enterprise – the conference theme has particular relevance, implications and impact.
The conference addresses questions that explore the relationship between quality design, innovation, sustainability, creativity and responsibility; and the inspiring possibilities intelligent approaches to these issues can produce.
We have assembled a selection of internationally-active and engaged architects who address these issues through their exceptional work, and to present their production through a dynamic dialogue-process within the framework of ‘Sustainable Excellence’.

very striking design. I really like the subtle transition between the metal skin and the glazing system. You can barely perceive the edges.
