IABSE Future of Design NYC 2020

IABSE presents Future of Design NYC for the fourth time in September 2020. Join us for a series of events dedicated to synthesizing new ideas and discussing active issues in the engineering and architecture community!

The theme of Future of Design NYC 2020 is Acceleration & Deceleration. Designers and related built environment professionals are often caught between the fast-paced flexibility that a project demands and the slow pace of change of industry practices.  This year’s program will evaluate the effects of acceleration on the built environment and on designing with social responsibility; it will also explore ideas and innovative practices that developed as a result of - or in an attempt to better harness - those shifts. It will approach these issues from perspectives of both engineering and architecture, in order to contextualize designers’ voices in transformative built environment initiatives.

FoDNYC 2020 will occur as a series of 5 events hosted online, from September 15th - 29th. Check www.fodnyc.org as we provide updates on program sessions and speakers!
