(IIA) Kerala Chapter and organized by IIA Kannur Centre, will take place on
November 29-30, 2024, at Vythiri Village Resort, Wayanad. This prestigious
conference will bring together visionary architects from across the
country and beyond to foster a rich
dialogue and exchange of innovative ideas in the field of architecture.
The Southern
Regional Conference serves as a premier platform for professional development,
knowledge sharing, and networking within the architectural community. This
year’s theme, “Bridging Binaries,” will guide discussions on the intricate
connections architecture fosters between humanity, society, and technological
innovation.
The conference
will delve into two primary themes: “Humanity and Society, and Humanity and Innovation”. In the first,
panelists will explore the essential role of architects in shaping societal
norms and lifestyle patterns, emphasizing how the built environment influences daily
life, behaviors, and social interactions. Resilient architecture will be a core
focus, as renowned architects share their commitment to creating spaces that
inspire, connect, and contribute to a sustainable future.
The second theme,
Humanity and Innovation, will examine the ways in which technological
advancements like immersive technology and 3D printing are transforming
architectural practices. Experts will highlight how these innovations are
bridging the gap between imagination and reality, pushing the boundaries of
design. The discussions will offer valuable insights into modern tools and
techniques that facilitate experimental, dynamic architecture.
