THE SHAPE OF CREATIVE SPACES
If living through lockdowns has taught us one thing, it is that the spaces we live and work in have an enormous effect on our wellbeing. Carefully curated art and design can help us understand ourselves better, while also teaching us to look outwards – but how to create an environment that balances form with function, heritage with modernity, the personal with the universal? 
Speakers
- Mohammed Afkhami,
-  Zeynep Fadillioglu
- Corrie Jackson
Moderated by Frances Hedges
