London Festival of Architecture • The Future City: Urban Resilience and the Power of Data
HQ Architects has worked systematically using data and technology as tools to understand social behaviour and community needs, translating them into physical space. Erez Ella, Founding Partner of HQ Architects, an international practice based in Tel Aviv and Councillor Susan Aitken, leader of Glasgow City Council and member of the Scottish Cities Alliance, will discuss the power of data on improving social and spatial conditions in the built environment, and why technological centric solutions can promote better living conditions and urban resilience.
The Scottish Cities Alliance is a unique collaboration of Scotland’s seven cities – Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Inverness, Perth and Stirling – and the Scottish Government, working together to create the conditions for attracting investment, stimulating economic activity and creating business growth across Scotland’s cities, among others.
