Event Description:

Raj Rewal is internationally recognized for the creation of buildings
that respond with sensitivity to the complex demands of rapid
urbanization, climate, and culture. Earlier in his career, his focus
on low-cost housing led him to design a large number of dwelling
units, fragmented into smaller aggregations enclosing a variety of
spaces for different building types — an experience that led him to
create a series of public projects in a humane manner, for works of
epic proportions. Rewal will discuss his past work in public housing,
the lessons learned from the cities of Rajasthan, Mediterranean
villages, and high-density developments, and how the study of the
existing traditional pattern of living can provide cues for
place-making that can promote community activities.
