Arkitekter uden Grænser præsenterer: 6 new proposals on architecture & development

12. september 2019, kl. 17.00 - 20.00 på KADK biblioteket:

On the occasion of the exhibition "Informal Horizons" Architect Without Borders Denmark have invited 7 newly graduated architects to present their 6 graduate projects that in different ways merge architecture and development.
After the presentations we will open up to a discussion about the themes of the evening and of course have time to drink a glass of wine and enjoy the new exhibition.

AFTEN UDEN GRÆNSER
is an event series for Architects Without Borders Denmark, that combines both presentations and networking. We gather over a glass of wine and share thoughts, inspiration and experiences in the fields of architecture and development. Each evening has its own theme, with compelling presenters who share their experiences in the field, followed by a discussion and questions from the participants.
