The future of construction as a social issue

Organized in partnership with the New European Bauhaus and transform.NRW , the exhibition places the future of the built environment at the center of a lively social debate.

In the dialogue between architecture, sustainability and innovation, it becomes clear that sustainable construction is no longer a marginal issue – but a crucial building block for the future of urban living spaces.
