ATLAS Exchanging Knowledge is a free lecture series run by the European Council of Interior Architects, as part of the of the EU funded project Building Connections for a Stronger Profession. It presents six monthly events, each diving into topics relevant to strengthen our profession and support lifelong learning.
Lecture number three speculates on "The City of Proximity" by Prof. Ezio Manzini. In conversation with Dr. Albert Fuster, this talk invites us to imagine the so-called 15-minutes city, where functional and relational proximities enable citizens to feel closeness with each other. For over three decades Ezio Manzini has been working in the field of design for sustainability, for which he has recently received the Lifetime Achievement Award. Interested in social innovation for sustainable changes, he started DESIS, an international network of schools of design for social innovation.
