reSITE 2017: In/visible City

reSITE brings the 6th annual architecture and urbanism event, reSITE 2017: In/visible City, back to Prague at the Ricardo Bofill-designed Forum Karlin.

How does invisible infrastructure shape the visible aspects of a city?

40 international thought leaders will discuss the intersections of design and infrastructure and the presence of these vital systems in the architecture and landscape of cities.

Keynote speakers:

  • Kazuyo Sejima, SANAA, Tokyo, JP
  • Teddy Cruz, Estudio Teddy Cruz + Forman, San Diego, US
  • Fonna Forman, Estudio Teddy Cruz + Forman, San Diego, US
  • Jean-Louis Missika, deputy Mayor of Paris, FR

Lectures and discussions will explore everything that makes a city functional, that drives the economy and consumes a consequent part of municipal budgets despite being invisible; like technical infrastructure. How can infrastructure drive development and how can it be sexy?

Innovative by ideas, a cross-disciplinary approach and interactive formats, reSITE will offer urban games, presentations from visionary leaders, awarded architects and talented startups. The organizers are again experimenting with innovative workshops and a handful of side events like bar crawls and tube tours of underground infrastructure.

40 inspiring global experts, architects, mayors, planners, municipal leaders, real estate developers and city makers from 20 countries will merge in one forum with 1,000 participants.
