Event description

This spring, the CCA Architecture Division presents a vibrant lecture series that highlights groundbreaking ideas and practices shaping architecture and design today. From innovations in biomaterials to the voices redefining contemporary practice, this series offers a dynamic exploration of the pressing issues and opportunities transforming the field.


Key events include Pioneering Biomaterials: Academia and Industry Convergence 2025, the 5th Annual CCA & Autodesk Technology Center Academic Alliance Symposium, which explores the role of biomaterials in sustainable design through keynotes by Jenny Sabin and David Benjamin, as well as panels with leading experts. The series also features engaging talks by Studio AHEAD, Casper Mork-Ulnes, Jennifer Ly and James Leng of Figure, and Luis Enrique Flores and Armida Fernández of Estudio ALA, who will deliver the fifth Sandra Vivanco Memorial Lecture.


These events are more than lectures—they are invitations to engage, collaborate, and reimagine the possibilities of architecture. Join us to connect with global leaders and emerging voices as we explore the ideas shaping the future of the built environment.
