Conversations are held throughout the year. We invite practitioners, thinkers, leaders, designers, critics, and curators, from across architecture, art, and design to speak to students on their work and ideas. We seek to bring  discussions that extend beyond the conventional disciplinary boundaries of university-sanctioned education, bringing critical and provocative voices to our architectural discourse.

In the last couple of years, we’ve welcomed speakers including Peter Eisenman, Takero Shimazaki, Sarah Wigglesworth, Rod Heyes, and Jeremy Till, among other exciting guests.

Our Conversations are an opportunity for discussion and debate between students and industry professionals, and this year we’re expanding the format and opening the floor. These events are open to anyone for free — follow us on Instagram to hear about upcoming events.
