World Architecture Congress
Welcome to the World Architecture Congress - the essential learning and networking opportunity that brings together the most dynamic and innovative designers, engineers and developers worldwide.
The 7th annual World Architecture Congress was a resounding success, bringing together architects and designers from across the globe to discuss challenging issues of sustainability, urban development, city regeneration and contemporary vernacular. Inaugurating the event were award-winning architects, JDS of Denmark, represented by Partner and Copenhagen Director, Hening Stüben, who discussed the creation of iconic architecture utilising cutting-edge sustainable technologies.
Supported by the American Institute of Architects and the Royal Institute of British Architects, and sponsored by Hespano Décor, the congress revealed the practical applications and economic benefits of sustainable architecture through a series of presentations, panel discussions and roundtables with leading architects and public figures, including Rashad Bukhash, Director of Architectural Heritage Department at the Dubai Municipality and elected Member of Parliament.
The congress concluded on a practical note with a half-day workshop led by Dr. Robert Cooke, Associate at Buro Happold on methods of using integrated design techniques to deliver more sustainable projects.
