ISAIA 2024
14th International Symposium on Architectural Interchange in Asia
第 14 回アジアの建築交流国際シンポジウム“Architect-ing What?”- Rethinking the Foundations of Human Existence https://isaia2024.aij.or.jp/
The symposium is scheduled to be held in Kyoto from September 10 to 13, 2024, under the theme"Architect-ing What?: Rethinking the Foundations of Human Existence."
With a history spanning 1,200 years, the ancient city of Kyoto has experienced and regenerated
through various crises such as pandemics, natural disasters, wars, shifts in political systems andindustrial structures, from its founding to the present day. On each occasion, the fundamental basis ofhuman existence and the conditions of the built environment have been practically questioned.
In the 21st century, we are once again approaching a critical stage where we must fundamentallyreconsider architecture. Amidst circumstances like economic globalization, frequent disasters, global
warming and environmental crisis, as well as pandemics and wars, architecture cannot be merely about
constructing buildings. What exactly should we be architecting?
So now, to everyone in Asia and around the world, let's gather in Kyoto, a city of crisis and rebirth,and exchange our diverse insights and perspectives as we reexamine the foundations of architecture!
