Some years are brighter than others and 2018 was made up of shining stars for reSITE and will be remembered in reSITE’s history.
We moved beyond Prague, bringing you RESONATE Thinking Sound + Space in Lisbon in February. We explored a niche but fascinating universe – the fourth dimension of architecture, putting the undercharted relationship between sound and architecture on top of the discussion, with Meyer Sound and the MAAT Museum. We took you to Berlin and back to Prague with our My City, Your City salon series, exploring how innovation aims to make our lives easier and less anonymous, in cities. We hosted our first residency program with Shared Cities: Creative Momentum project, welcoming artists and curators from all over Europe.
In June, we helped Prague “leap up the coolness scale” with our Manifesto Market – a temporary intervention in the center of Prague. And we hosted our 7th flagship conference reSITE 2018 ACCOMMODATE which brought together more than 1100 international guests to explore the hottest topic in today’s cities: affordable housing. Sou Fujimoto, Michel Rojkind, Jeanne Gang, OMA’s Reinier de Graaf and Dezeen’s Marcus Fairs were among the speakers.
In summer, we travelled to San Francisco and Washington DC and signed new cooperations to become creative and editorial leader of new events. reSITE is going places. We can’t wait to invite you in the coming year to join us!
