Z-AXIS 2022 – SESSION 1 – MEMORIAL LECTURE
4 November, 2022 @ 18:00 - 20:00

We open the conference by paying tribute to Charles Correa and his interest in climate appropriate design. He wrote extensively on this subject, especially during the energy crisis of the 1970s, and coined the phrase ‘Form Follows Climate’. We see this as a provocation, a call to architects and designers to find solutions to sustainable, energy-passive and energy-active buildings.
This opening session will start with a brief recorded lecture by Correa from the 1970s, followed by Kartik Vora (Ajeenkya DY Patil University) giving the Remembering Charles Correa Lecture: ‘Surface and Symbol.’ We will also hear Marc Angelil (AGPS Architecture) present the Charles Correa Memorial Lecture: ‘Pioneering Errors: HVAC + W & S + E & IT’. After the two lectures, Kapil Gupta (Serie Architects) will lead the discussion and then open the floor for questions.
