Symposium
ArtDevelopment/Messe München
Munich, D, 2003

Curated by Ilka & Andreas Ruby at the real-estate fair, this conference featured a series of case-studies of cooperation between architects and project developers. It highlighted the mutual synergy effects both parties can draw from one another. Project Developers accounted for the economic surplus value of good design, and architects gave examples of how economic parameters of real estate can become part of the conceptual agenda of a project, instead of a constraint imposed after the fact.
