Conference 2024: Designed Living Environment – How to Count?
/https%3A%2F%2Farkdes.se%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2024%2F05%2FGL24-eng-titel_3.png)
Welcome to the annual conference on Designed Living Environment hosted by the National Board of Housing, Building and Planning, the Swedish National Heritage Board, ArkDes, and the National Public Art Council. This year’s theme is: How to count?
How much does quality cost? Do we need and can we think and calculate in new ways? The conference brings together property owners, construction actors, municipalities, and authorities to collectively listen to inspiring examples and discuss how we create and ensure attractive living environments and manage existing values – for today’s residents and for future generations.
Plus, we’ll announce the winners of the ‘Årets strålkastare’ award – recognizing those who’ve set the bar high in the field of Designed Living Environments.
The physical event (300 seats) takes place at ArkDes on Skeppsholmen in Stockholm. You can always follow the conference live digitally. Both physical and digital participation require pre-registration through a ticket.
