10 Dogmas: What if we reimagined the rural through regenerative approaches?

Learn about the ambitions of the architecture and planning studio Rural Agency to reuse the rural past for the rural future.

The architectural imagination of the 20th century has predominantly emphasized the transformative potential of urban environments. Yet, the urgency of the ongoing ecological crisis necessitates a structural reconsideration of the rural landscape.

This event, part of GRASP 2023, encourages you to reimagine the countryside through a regenerative lens, highlighting the deep entanglements of food, belonging, and biological diversity. Hear the architectural studio Rural Agency challenge the dogmas of rural planning and partake in the conversation on the future of the countryside.

Let's together unleash our imagination in the rural landscape! Let’s reintroduce the rural as utopian topos! Let’s reorganize the way we live, work, and produce in the countryside!

The presentation is part of the 10 Dogmas event series, organized by the Copenhagen Architecture Festival and made possible thanks to the generous financial support from Velux.

Speakers:
Anna Sofie Hvid, Founder​, MA Research Architecture, BA Philosoph
Josephine Nørtoft Saaby, Co-founder, Architect MAA
Søren Nørkjær Bang, Curator, MA Art History
