With the exhibition “Un jardin d'hiver, présente(´). 'Bottom Up. Building for a Better World.' 9 Projects for Johannesburg” and the 14th Vienna Architecture Congress “Bottom Up. Building for a Better World”, the Architekturzentrum Wien is once again focussing on the subject of aesthetic and social engagement as an essential issue in architecture training and practise. At the 14th Vienna Architecture Congress, sustainable planning and building in a context of the relevant social, economic, environmental and political background is discussed with a series of illustrious speakers. Post-colonial aspects of problems involved in a proactive orientation in design and planning are addressed in the exhibition. We are looking forward to an exciting and complex discussion that picks up on the social issues in architecture.
