Architectural Climate in Holland and Italy: On Construction and Sustainability
November 28, 2009 | Levent OZLER
Architectural Climate in Holland and Italy will be held on Thursday December 3 in Rome, Italy.
The conference, promoted by the Royal Netherlands Embassy in Rome, in collaboration with IN/ARCH and with NAi, will explore environmental sustainability and energy saving issues by presenting excellent cases in the Netherlands and in Italy.
The conference is the outcome of an analysis, pursued by the Embassy, which points out an ever increasing attention, in both countries, for issues related to construction and sustainability.
By means of a presentation of a series of projects, by the Dutch and Italian guest speakers, the conference will highlight differences and similarities in the two countries' approaches to the architectural project.
"The research carried out by the Embassy proves the topicality and the urgency of sustainable architecture," said Alphonsus Stoelinga, Dutch Ambassador in Rome.
"The conference will be a starting point for an exchange of practical experiences.
Its final objective is to possibly identify opportunities for collaboration between the two countries."
The conference, which is aimed at architects, contractors as well as at scholars and journalists, will hopefully establish a network of Dutch and Italian architects and contractors and reveal new market opportunities.
