From Syria, Palestine and Ukraine to Ghana, the United States and Denmark, OPEN26 brought together more than 1,100 participants from around the world on 18 September for a day of critical and investigative perspectives on architecture and its wider role in society.<\/p>\n

Under the title Mies Didn\u2019t Come Home That Night, OPEN26 looked to the legacy of modernism and its utopian aspirations as a starting point for reflecting on where we are today, examining the physical, social, political and planetary consequences of its ambitions.<\/p>\n

At the same time, we turned towards what lies ahead. At a time when climate change, diversity and inclusion compete for attention with war, rearmament and geopolitical instability, OPEN26 created a space for reflection and exchange: how can architecture, as a profession, an industry and an institution, understand and contribute to a world in transformation? What can architecture do when the future no longer looks like the future we imagined? Together with prominent national and international voices from architecture, academia and politics, we explored how our discipline, industry and institutions might respond to the challenges ahead.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>
