Canvassing the Concept 2023. Architects in Dialogue

Canvassing the Concept event took place in May 2023 in the form of a dialogue with presentations held by young London architecture graduates - in online format. The organization, script and moderation of the 4 sessions were managed by Matei Mitrache, architect and university assistant at Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL and University Westminster, London. The idea of these meetings - presentations was provided by the Educational Forum of Architecture and Urbanism - FEdAU - held within the "Ion Mincu" University of Architecture and Urbanism, a project promoting the connection of UAUIM with the international and national educational environment. Such manifestations seem to fit naturally into a mode of operation and education, in a world of excellence in communication. Starting from 2021, the organization of these events has periodically brought to attention of Mincu students the innovative experiences of fellow architects from the European space and beyond, as well as the experiments, concerns, successful studies surprised in original projects - a world of ideas, searches and research finally materialized in the concept. This year "Canvassing the Concept" hosted eight young architects, designers and researchers from London sharing different approaches to the creative process and how they managed possible solutions to various challenges in recent experiments.
