RIBA+VitrA Talks: collective collaborations - new forms of practice and co-design

The next talk in the series Forms of Exchange invites Jayden Ali, Akil Scafe-Smith of RESOLVE Collective, and Dr Julia King to discuss their collaborative approach within architecture and the invaluable engagement with communities that use the spaces, chaired by Dr Torange Khonsari.

Join us for the next talk in the VitrA autumn programme and continuation of the series Forms of Exchange: exploring the spaces in-between.  

RIBA + VitrA Talks bring together architects who are building structures rooted in place, shaped by their context and values of integrity.

This discussion will explore how architecture can reflect social values and how it has the potential to enhance people’s quality of life. It will address the question: How important is it to create spaces that are diverse, inclusive, supportive, and enriching to those who use these places?   

Chaired by Dr Torange Khonsari, this panel talk will feature Jayden Ali, Akil Scafe-Smith of RESOLVE Collective, and Dr Julia King, who will discuss their collaborative approach within architecture and the invaluable engagement with communities that use the spaces.

Collectively, they will share insights into their work and the power of participation within their practice, proving how it enhances the built environment for the people it serves.   

This event is part of our Forms of Exchange: Exploring the spaces in between series of talks for the RIBA + VitrA Partnership.

This partnership reflects a shared commitment to add social, economic, and cultural value to society, and VitrA Bathrooms are proud to be supporting such an inspiring programme.

With innovation at its core, a global reach, and a tradition of collaborating with celebrated architects and designers, the VitrA bathroom brand has become a world leader, synonymous with contemporary sophistication since the mid-1900s.
