Seoul, Korea, 3-10 September 2017

This year it was Seoul that hosted the Congress of UIA which is the primary international forum for the professionals of architecture today. Its slogan was „Soul of City”, which is a kind of a word pun as well. Taking place every third year, this highly prestigious international meeting includes plenaries, panel discussions, debates and forums, lectures by star architects held in the COEX Events Centre by presenting a large number of innovative architectural technologies and techniques to its visitors. During the conference a variety of public information programmes, round-table discussions, seminars, workshops, academic/scientific lectures, as well as programmes organised by students of architecture were held.
